“Dodici metri di apertura alare” -Svizzera

By and with Tommaso Giacopini
With Alice Redini
Directed by Tommaso Giacopini

"Can you imagine a continent parting? I mean, you think that there are things in life that are the way they are and do not change and then you discover that continents break apart and shatter like glasses on the floor, look at me, look at you, how disgusting you are, how pitiful I am, how shattered continents, would you ever have said it?"

Things are as they are until they change. The reality of today is the unimaginable future of a more or less distant time. In the most diverse places on our planet sleep fossils of dinosaurs weighing a hundred thousand kilos, centipedes almost three metres long, deer with four-metre antlers, pterodactyls with twelve-metre wingspans. Dinosaurs ruled our planet, then a stone fell from the sky. Extinction. Life had to start again. This universal law that commands that everything must be destroyed in order to be recreated in a new form applies to universal motions as much as to the most intimate motions of our life experience. This is how Sofia, the protagonist of the play, finds herself caught between destruction and creation in her own family intimacy, discovering on the same day that her mother has died and that she herself is pregnant.
