Theater

"Two Nutcrackers" arrives at Sala Assoli, the winner of the Rome Fringe Festival 2023

Saturday, March 9th at 8:30 PM, in a unique date, on the stage of Sala Assoli, the winning show of the Rome Fringe Festival 2023: Two Nutcrackers by Alice Bertini. What happens when you get too close to power? The theatrical work directed by Bertini herself and Carlotta Solidea Aronica tries to answer this thorny question.

Two Nutcrackers is the story of two royal guards, always standing, immobile at their post, who, by interacting randomly, discover shared passions and common interests, such as jazz. Together, they decide to rebel against the Queen, to whom they lend their side. They come up with an impeccable plan to "take her out", crush her heart and mind just as it would be in their nature as Nutcrackers towards nuts.

At San Ferdinando, La Lupa with Donatella Finocchiaro

The tragic nineteenth-century story of the writer from Catania becomes a very current manifesto on prejudices and social conventions. A journey into the woman's universe in search of a femininity free from ties, bold and light, that does not mince words.
