Italian language, the language of fusion and contamination,
which gave life and a very clear distinction between the languages used to
describe the "epic" from everyday life, often separating
"Tragedy" from "Comedy".
This event attempts to show the cross between the purity of
a language with its thousand regionalisms, its contaminations with Latin, with
foreign languages, the language of land crossroads of history and stories, in
the heart of the Mediterranean, a land of travels and migrations, that created
a theatrical current, the Art of Comedy, lasting two hundred years, nomadic by
its very nature and survival, which has contaminated the whole Europe, helping
to find modern theater.
The Italian theater company MaMiMò will take us through a
journey starting with “Comedy” from the words of Ludovico Ariosto to those of
Dario Fo, followed by“tragedy” it will start with Giraldi Cinzio, then Alfieri
and arrive to the modern times where we can see hybrids between tragedy and
comedy such as Pirandello's theater of the "Six Characters in Search of an
Author" or Pasolini's "Affabulazione".
