5 – 11 June 2026 Officine CAOS – Le Vallette District, Turin
Part of the City of Turin’s cultural programme “Turin, What a Beautiful Summer!”, Il Coraggio di Essere Felici continues its schedule by transforming, week after week, the Le Vallette district into an open cultural laboratory. For seven years, the Officine CAOS summer festival has animated the neighbourhood with an inclusive, accessible and high‑quality programme, weaving together performing arts, participatory practices and social activities involving people of all ages.
With the start of a new week of events, Officine CAOS renews its commitment to fostering participation, proximity and community, offering a diverse programme that alternates workshops, meetings, outdoor activities and evening performances, the beating heart of the festival. A mosaic of experiences centred on relationships, care for shared spaces and the creation of a collective imagination, confirming the cultural vision that has always guided the company’s work in the neighbourhood.
INCONTRI
Friday 5 June – 9:15 PM Courtyard of Officine CAOS | Piazza Montale 14 Performance by Stalker Teatro
Incontri is one of Stalker Teatro’s most emblematic works, presented over the years at numerous international festivals and widely recognised for its ability to transform the stage into a space of active participation. The performance invites the audience to become part of the action, generating a collective event that blends theatre, human connection and community.
Inspired by fragments of the Old Testament dedicated to the theme of “encountering the other”, Incontri places at its centre the idea of positive coexistence and the building of meaningful bonds. The participatory dimension—Stalker Teatro’s distinctive signature—creates a shared experience that dissolves the boundary between spectator and performer.
Concept and direction: Gabriele Boccacini Performers: Adriana Rinaldi, Gigi Piana, Dario Prazzoli, Sara Ghirlanda, Stefano Bosco Live music: Riccardo Ruggeri Lighting design: Giorgio Peri
With the support of Mibact, Regione Piemonte, Città di Torino Admission: €5 / reduced €3
