A dreamlike, lunar spectacle with rarefied and magical atmospheres. A continuous contamination between music and words, between oneiric and real. A wonderful orchestra, a wonderful choir and then singers, actors, children together for the first time to tell a magical story, the story of a fallen puppet you don’t know how, (maybe inside a moonlight) you don’t know when, (maybe last night!) in a circus of guitti and acrobats. Everything in music: a story of training that is inspired by the fairy tales of the literary tradition for children. A story about how hard and original it is for each of us to “grow up”, but also a tribute to the theatre, its beauty, its caducity and its ability to transport us into worlds that exist only behind the curtain.

N.B. the show will be staged again in October, November and December 2019.

Signs: the body signs and musical signs in a close dialogue between two arts sisters. An exchange of intentions where music becomes gesture and the gesture becomes breath. A gesture to listen to, a sound to see. The solo cello music program that provides the starting point for this intense dialogue ranges from the eighteenth century to contemporary music: some movements from the first three Suites for solo cello by Johann Sebastian Bach 1685-1750), the Capriccio in C minor by Giuseppe Maria Dall’Abaco (1710-1805), Nepdalfele da Signs, Games and Messages by György Kurtág (no. 1926) and Quasi una sarabanda by Orazio Sciortino, pianist and composer from Syracuse born in 1984.

We are in the new restaurant that Totò, a chef who made a career in Paris, has recently opened in Palermo and is the new attraction of the city’s nightlife. It is precisely from “Chez Totò” that Tancredi, a young son of the well-known Palermo, accompanies Solange, called Chérie, a young Parisian fashion designer who has moved to the city and whom he is in love with. Once at the restaurant, they are welcomed by Toto who is an old friend of Tancredi but also of Calogero, another suitor of Chérie who comes too for a drink. Then begins a tangle of funny situations, misunderstandings and gags managed by Totò, his two waiters Simone and Rosalia and Cettina, girlfriend abandoned by Caologero. A game of couples in which Toto, a bit’ istrione and a little’ Deus ex machina, disfa e riannoda nuovi amori e vecchie amicizie.

The dancers propose a collaborative experience: after an initial stage as spectators, students are involved in the movement and called to listen and share their perceptions. A performance that comes from the research on the sounds of the body still and in motion, starting from what we perceive as silence. The absence of sound is never true absence: the body is sound. The bones, organs, fluids of the body have a sound. Perceiving the inner sound puts us in contact with the vibrations and sound waves of the body that are projected outside, transformed, reshaped and active. the body moves and meets the air, generating forms and dynamics related to acceleration, deceleration, suspension, fall, resistance, tension and release. The space, with which the body meets and clashes, generates frequencies and intensity. And what happens when internal frequencies, generated by the body, interact with external frequencies generated from other sources? A dialogue is born that interferes with our emotional states, because the receptors through nerve circuits have the power to generate emotions.
