Colui che sapeva contare
“He Who Knew How to Count” is a show that is aimed at the many for whom mathematics is an incomprehensible nightmare. It is a narration that is structured around a series of extraordinary sleight of hand tricks performed not with cards but with numbers. By delving into the exploration of numerical systems, one understands […]
kohlhaas
The story of Kohlhaas is a true story that happened in 16th century Germany, written by Heinrich von Kleist in memorable pages. In my oral storytelling it is as if I had added to the recognizable bony skeleton of Kleist’s story structure, nerves, muscles and skin that no longer come from the original author but […]
Rapsodia per giganti
Rhapsody for Giants is a duet for stilt walkers in open spaces that has its roots in all that vast territory of suggestions between myth and fairy tale. Two enormous characters from another time appear accompanied by the roll of drums … the dance begins and as in an ancient deck of cards the stories […]
Tracce
I present this theatrical research of mine with the term study; not only for me is “Traces” an unfinished work but it would pretend to never end. Try to imagine a sculpture that in itself could evolve in many directions and that instead continues to live as a continuous sketch, a trace of meanings yet […]
Pitzinnos Fahrenheit
At the shrill sound of the siren, the strange three-wheeled machines advance through the streets of an oppressed city, driven by two sinister figures in dark uniforms: the gruff Captain Beatty and Soldier Montag, repressed by iron discipline but ultimately gentle and cunning. These fire soldiers, followers of the dogmas of their King Toto, believe […]
Puddu Family
In 1943 Cagliari experienced some of the saddest days in its history: the B17s, the American “flying fortresses” repeatedly bombed the city, destroying entire neighborhoods and transforming it into a huge battlefield. The war seen through the eyes of a child. A child with Down syndrome who was unfortunate enough to have an extremely ignorant […]
Walkers
Our modern walkers are the pilgrims of the past. And their journey today as then is the expression of the universal desire to free oneself from the slavery of every subjection and to redeem oneself from the misery that oppresses one. The theme of Camminanti is immigration, the most relevant social phenomenon of this end […]
Ex Proff
Schools, together with the church, are perhaps the only points of aggregation left in a town or neighborhood. The classroom door opens and a teacher enters, takes her place at the desk, opens the register, calls the roll and gets ready to teach. The teacher takes out some old photos of school groups: here are […]
Amnesia – Stories for a Guest’s Home
The unique experience of theatre in homes, which unites various Italian theatre realities, arises from the need and desire to bring theatre to meet people in the places of life and everyday life, where people meet intimately and get to know each other. One day I found in a book by Ermanno Cavazzoli, “Vite brevi […]
Villarosa
In 1953, a twenty-year-old girl and her entire family suddenly decide to leave. Starting point: Villarosa (EN), destination: Liège (Belgium). I don’t know if they fully realized that they were emigrants, that they were somehow part of our History. I have always known history well. It is the story that my mother always told me, […]
Andromaca
Euripides’ Andromache has not seen the Italian stage for some time. An atypical tragedy, highly experimental, built from three different blocks and almost deprived of the eminently tragic pathos of classicism, Andromache is revealed, now, in a new reading by the young director Massimiliano Civica and interpreted, masterfully, by Andrea Cosentino, in a monologue for […]
