Performance

For the first time, Virginia Raffaele brings in its most popular masks theaters: Ornella Vanoni, Belen Rodriguez, the Minister of Forests, the criminologist Bruzzone and many others. very different women, and between art, entertainment, power and politics summarize some of the recurring obsessions of contemporary society: the vanity, the cunning, the desire for affirmation and, perhaps, the lack of self-consciousness. All told through the distorting lens and irreverent irony and satire, typical elements that make up the style of Virginia Raffaele.
The characters monologano and talk to each other, thanks to video projections, in a game of mirrors, and notations. Here and there, between the masks, the scene also appears Virginia itself, which interacts with its creatures, as a sort of involuntary poetic narrator who reveals his "be - or not to be". The stage music acts as punctuation to the show, accompanying the characters in their performances, highlighting the movement, emphasizing foibles; giving the show a frenetic pace in whose vortex the characters, Virginia and the various interpretations are mixed creating a new reality, sometimes crazy sometimes melancholy: that the show itself.
