Tzia Teresa
This work was born from a study of the 40s, the war, the period of the Resistance in Italy. Initially my intention was to write a story about a real person, Leandro Corona, a boy from Villamassargia, arrested and shot in 1943, as a deserter. I really liked the story of that young man who […]
Pòsidos
“I’m glad you want to listen to these stories,” Simona Rosa, a woman over eighty, told me. “I know so many that I could tell you about them for days and days. But if you want to understand them completely, you have to imagine what life was like when I was young. Innanti fut diversu. […]
Ulysses eh eh
Give Ulysses back some humanity. Too often he is described to us as a Super Hero, a man with magical powers, different from all the others. Ulysses is a man and above all a child with all his sweet contradictions, contemptuous of danger, fearful, brilliant and capricious, so curious that he continually forgets the destination […]
Italy-Brazil 3-2
Italy Brazil 3 to 2, by the actor Davide Enia from Palermo, is an “epic and very personal” commentary of the match played by our national team at the 1982 World Cup. A maniacal and delirious evocation of characters and facts, exemplified by the theatrical genre of “cuntu”. “U cuntu” in Sicilian is the story […]
Teatro di terra
We make bread in an oven that we invented, we make polenta in a copper pot, we cut cheese and vegetables, we make theater in another way, who knows if it is theater. We put the spectators (few and who knows if they are spectators) sitting in a sort of circle with glasses, wine, water, […]
Schegge – Study on May ’43
What is the night when the alarm siren for night bombings always screams? What is it that I can’t eat black bread anymore and so I try to poach eels? What is it that I crawl against the walls so as not to be seen by the fascist militia? What is it that I look […]
Mariposa, the mechanical butterfly
In a world folded in on itself, dead, without palpitations, there are still those who want to be amazed, those who desire the journey, those who do not want to resign themselves to the death of dreams, but chase them as if they were the last remaining frontier. Chasing the dream, chasing a fairy tale, […]

La favola de Zoza
The fairy tale recreates the wonder of a complex universe, using few elements. It achieves maximum results with minimum expenditure of means. From remote times, through the slow rumination of generations, it continues to offer us an explanation of life. Fairy tales, as a whole, are the catalogue of destinies that can be given to […]

One Thousand and One Nights
The Thousand and One Nights is the supreme kingdom of insomniac readers. Entering this book, one wanders through a fabulous Islam that today we would struggle to recognize. The book of nights is a collection of stories that are structured, fitting into each other, around a main story. The appearance of a character invariably involves […]
Cristolu – Life of a Bandit Friar
This is a project based on the novel by the Orani writer Salvatore Niffoi, which marks the collaboration between the companies Cada Die Teatro from Cagliari and Bocheteatro from Nuoro. The story tells of the bad justice that Sardinians have always suffered over the centuries. A story of the powerful against the weak and defenseless. […]
