Sunday, November 9 at 7:00 PM will stage ORSANTE by Matteo Vignati, winner of the L’Arena di Cyrano 2025 award (best show).
In a monologue with a fast-paced and frenetic rhythm, Ultimo retraces the emotional geography of a journey of distancing and personal growth. He narrates the adventures that are sometimes exhilarating, sometimes tragicomic, sometimes extremely tough, of his wandering life up to the borders of Asia. He speaks of the intimate relationship with the bear he has learned to tame, the loneliness that can be seen in the animal’s eyes, a loneliness similar to his own, as if the bear too lamented a forgotten world, a distant mother. And then the performances, living off handouts, the beatings, the onset of the Great War, the rebellion and escape from his tormentor, until he becomes Orsante himself, master of himself and his bear.
Only at the end of the story will Ultimo come to the tragic realization. But he will also understand that the place we call home is perhaps not where we are born, but where the heart resides.
After the show at 9:00 PM, Marilù D’Andria in concert.
A solo concert, exploring the thoughts of an 18-year-old young and talented artist who will let you discover her world. Her music embraces a wide range of genres, from pop melodies to the more intense shades of soul, blues, r&b, and jazz.
