AstorriTintinelliTeatro - Eh! Eh! Eh! Raccapriccio
Description
Baudelaire, the great poet of modernity, was taken to a court during his lifetime, because his verses were seen as exciting the senses, generating repugnance, foetid. Suffused with fragrance but also poison. They go to your head, get your nerves drunk, make your head spin, cause distress.
We imagine a show with a lucifer-esque, intoxicated aura. We imagine a place which evokes the sacred space as much as possible, with an atmosphere of mystery and twilight hanging over it, two creatures measuring up in revulsion and horror, on life’s fleetingness.
Alberto Astorri, Paola Tintinelli
