Presentazione
La Fondazione Teatro Massimo e la Fondazione Gaetano Costa propongono un percorso di introduzione all’arte per bambini di scuola primaria che prevede la visita del Teatro e la partecipazione ad un laboratorio guidato da Marta Cataliotti, ideatrice del progetto narrativo ispirato alla storia della danza e del balletto.
Il titolo di balletto che verrà proposto ai bambini durante il laboratorio è Don Chisciotte (spettacolo incluso nella stagione 2026 del Teatro Massimo, andato in scena dal 29 marzo al 4 aprile).
La storia proposta verrà quindi riletta dallo sguardo fantasioso dei bambini che si introdurranno così nella metaforica “linea del tempo” trovando il loro spazio.

The plot
In an ethereal scene, lit by a soft, delicate light, a garden of bare peach trees appears. The petals of the flowers have fallen to the ground, the lanterns still hang from the branches. It seems that winter has passed or is about to arrive. Three characters behind their masks, like shadows, appear on the scene. They tell an ancient story, that of Princess Turandot, victim of a curse that has involved the whole kingdom. Her frozen heart cannot love, feel emotions and so her kingdom loses vigour, light and hope. Only the arrival of someone of great courage could break the spell that has made her the Ice Princess and the whole kingdom could return to shine and love.

The plot
The show is inspired by Suzy Lee’s book “The Wave” and tells a story that is both simple and complex: that of a little girl and her encounter with the sea, which leads her to cross a boundary, to experience, to learn. The sea is the natural element that contains and awakens a series of emotions and moods: curiosity, fascination, the desire to play, but also the unknown, fear, and the need to escape. The sea also marks the boundary between the real and the imaginary. The limit, therefore, that becomes a necessary step towards transformation and always leaves behind a treasure to be cherished.
