it is a silent and suspended dialogue between two characters: a dancer and a wooden puppet. The place of

this encounter is a rarefied space in which time expands, silence becomes rhythm and the passage of time takes over

weight. Through a play of light and shadow, the two characters connect, feeding each other's soul.

The little man, neutral and expressionless sometimes dresses as an inner judge, imaginary friend, alter ego of the

dancer generating an impulse that pushes the protagonist to break the crystallization of which she seems to be

prisoner to regain possession of their lost time.

• All in the sign of you_at first glance by Roberta Ferrarawith Antonello Amati and Laila Lovino (Apulia)

Can a glance completely divert the course of an entire life? May a meeting be able to change

an entire existence? Dante Alighieri the poet whose love for Beatrice was so great that he became a topos

literary. A shocking, transcendental and never materialized platonic love. Roberta Ferrara, inspired by the opera

Vita Nova approaches this shocking intensity by internalizing it and transmitting it with its language.

• PROMETHEUS?

By and with Lorenzo Covello

The existence of every man slips onto the scene, between desires, discoveries, effort, inopportune opportunities, ambiguous possibilities. Conquests that become mistakes, elements that change face, weight, destination. Creating superstructures to proceed, abandoning them to proceed again, leaving in that water that every memory contains, the shell of what we were. Solitude is the only companion of every change and the continuous changing of the form of life that contains, holds, relentlessly rejects in a suspended circularity, at times, from

poetic moments.

“What distinguishes gods from men? The fact that many waves in front of them

they flow, an everlasting current. We the wave lifts us up, we the wave engulfs us and we sink."

Prometheus,

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
