Carte mute

"Theatre should be only a meeting between human beings. Everything else serves to confuse," wrote Ingmar Bergman. Humanity experiencing the theatre, whether in the audience or on stage, shares its own story, sometimes by telling it, as actors do, and at other times just by listening. One thing is certain: the experience of a performance always changes us, and we never leave a theatre the same as when we entered.

Vincenzo

Theatre performance

by and with Stefano Iagulli

And it’s also the day that 14-year-old Vincenzo has been waiting with hope, joy, fear (or rather pure terror). That day Vincenzo has a plan, and there is no time to lose. That is THE day, the first and the last.

Telling this story is a narrator who gives a voice, sometimes a body, sometimes just a shadow, to the colourful characters who make an appearance in this special day in Vincenzo’s life. Seven chapters, seven characters. Guest star: the Madonna dell’Altomare.
Boom, boom, boom, cannon shots. There is no time to lose.
