The show, through its content, echoes the theme of the 2024 edition of this important celebration of our culture: “The Italian Language and the Book: The World Between the Lines,” aiming to highlight the importance and role of literary works in the development of the various aspects of our beautiful language.
(Spoiler) This performance involves a private theater lesson conducted by an Italian actress for a young student. Together, they delve into some of the most significant plays, ranging from Plautus to Dario Fo, from Pirandello to Eduardo De Filippo’s “Natale in casa Cupiello”.
The show playfully dismantles the perceived incommunicability of the theatrical language, revealing its universality to the audience.
