Older Stereo Receivers

the extraordinary success of EMMA

Elisa Ferrari

outskirts of Milan, near the Gratosoglio, here thirty years ago the show hosted the largest in the theater, to Grotowskij Kantor. Years in which people pour in the suburbs to see the theater, with capital T, years in which you jump over the gates to have a place in the auditorium.

During this season the atmosphere of 'party' and, in a sense of 'community' has been recreated at the staging of the feast Emma Dante. Long lines at the box office, waiting lists, places added in the form of pillows that invade the stage, sold out for every night of the show.

With The party has closed the exhibition dedicated to the CRT's shows Emma Dante. Mishelle of Sant'Oliva, Carnezzeria, The monkey, Mpalermu, my life, these titles the shows that from 20 November to 6 December showed a full house at the box office of Teatro dell'Arte. The party , tragic, brilliant monologue performed by a well-trained and Gaetano Bruno might be called 'little drama partying for men and scope', is about a simple story of how deep. A father who for years has gone and he wants to return to take the child's disability pension. Two brothers, identical twins, Paris and James, "a aggrippato most of the other, an idiot and the other handicapped," living in symbiosis. One eats the other is satisfied, the other a sleeping dream. They are exchanging jokes names managed to fool everyone but the mother who punishes only Paris, forcing him to close the closet in the dark, in company with the scope. Paris wants to teach James to walk "because all Christians standing, and then she picks her up and taught him the rhythm, then James ... sinistradestrasinistradestra falls, and dies. Paris then you create a world of his own, in the closet with the brooms. It 's the day of his thirty-ninth birthday, blue lights flashing to light up a sort of altar a little' tacky: a huge red parcel which is the tabernacle Paris draws six colored brooms. Everything is ready, the feast can begin. Paris after a wild dance with Sammi, Gwendolyn and the other is ready for the cake with ketchup, but before the magic ... ... talitakum and brooms stand alone ...

With this show Dante does not lose interest in the family dramas, and perhaps in a more intimate approach to the drama of the facts. The film perfectly recreates quell'oblio of loneliness and insanity in Paris where he took refuge, allowing the public to enter on tiptoe in the dark closet to see Paris than with a talitakum does the magic broom. The people in the room struggling to get out of the closet, would make a night, and it shows with endless applause.

applause that together with all the other shows in which the public has watched with great interest and enthusiasm, and turnout figures prove it: 898 admissions per Carnezzeria , 590 for the Scimia , 934 for mPalermu, 360 Mishelle for and 483 for my life. A total of 3265 appearances in just over a fortnight. An important goal for the CRT that requires more and more as a point of reference in the theatrical culture.
