EVENING EVENTS
LA REGINA DEGLI SPAVENTAPASSERI
Friday 25 September – 9:15 PM ·
Officine CAOS
Performance by ArteMakìa
ArteMakìa, the contemporary circus company founded by director and acrobat Milo Scotton, brings to the stage a language that blends acrobatics, physical theatre, and the poetry of movement. Their creations arise from the encounter between the body, natural materials, and visual imagination: straw, earth, wood, and wind become dramaturgical elements animated through aerial work, comic timing, and acrobatic wonder.
La Regina degli Spaventapasseri tells the story of a farmer and his inseparable companion, who suddenly chooses to abandon her role. The grape harvest becomes ritual and play, a way to fill an unexpected absence. The stage opens like a field to be crossed: bodies that fly, gestures that unravel, a search that becomes dance. ArteMakìa builds a suspended universe where fragility and wonder coexist.
Admission €5 · Reduced €3
IL TEATRO È FESTA… REMO ROSTAGNO
Monday 28 September – 6:00–8:00 PM ·
Officine CAOS
Curated by Officine CAOS and Bruna Pellegrini
An evening dedicated to Remo Rostagno, theatre-maker and pedagogue, a figure who crossed the Italian scene with vision, irony, and radical clarity. Starting from the book Roba da matti by Bruna Pellegrini, the event unfolds through multiple voices: images, testimonies, and memories that restore his generous presence and his way of making theatre as an act of freedom. A celebration that becomes a collective ritual, a way to remember someone who transformed theatre into a place of possibility. Free admission
