The “Compagnia Teatrale Il Gruppo” proposes a theatrical show full of humour and paradoxes:
“ A F U T U R I S T N I G H T ”
(Let’s rekill the moonlight)
an entertaining, spirited and amusing performance which offers an effective way to become acquainted with this historical avant-garde movement, and in particular with a FUTURIST THEATRE that is widely unknown.
Details of the show: the show is based on some witty and anticonventional texts written by the “fathers” of Futurism (Balla, Boccioni, Cangiullo, Depero, Marinetti, etc.) and on some Neo-Futurist syntheses which have been specially created and successfully performed by the Company.
Duration: approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes (the duration of the show depends on the interaction with the audience)
Venue: the show can be performed either indoors or outdoors.
Participants: 10 people (7 actors, 1 musician, 1 technician plus the director/presenter)
Exhibition: There is also a possibility of putting on an exhibition in the theatre lobby. The “synthetic” exhibition will be devoted to the Futurist Movement and to its theatrical production, which has not been sufficiently studied so far.
Title of the Exhibition: “A great cultural adventure of the 20th century”
Audience: “A Futurist Night” is not an experimental piece but a show FOR EVERYBODY, in particular for a young audience.
Meeting/debate: at the end of the performance, the actors and the director will be available for a SHORT debate with the audience on this important avant-garde movement of the 20th Century.
Director: Edoardo Torricella
Original futurist music.
