Whoever does it himself makes five. Gaetano Ventriglia it is Othello, Iago, Desdemona, Rodegiro and Cassio in one a highly original show that has been receiving acclaim from the public and critics for 16 years.
The Apulian actor now also arrives in Sassari with his famous “Othello get up and walk“: the appointment is for Friday and Saturday at 9pm in the Bunker Space in via Porcellana 17/A.
The Apulian actor, highly praised also by Ascanio Celestini, brings to the stage his very personal rereading of Shakespeare’s classic, touching on different registers, farce, drama, yearning, high and low, and using the evocative power of the linguistic amalgam created by Ventriglia himself mixing Italian, Venetian, Foggia and macaronic English.
His rereading of Shakespeare’s drama becomes «opportunity for reflection on the truth of the existential condition, a truth that is stratified on multiple levels, and of the human being. Truth of the meaning of being on stage. The truth of a classic and its descent into the human soul. The truth of the condition of man, of his ideals and of the sense of beauty, of his daily suffering, of the meaning of life, of how it is traversed and lived.”
The show is included in the programming of “Theatres in danger of extinction” review organized by Meridiano Zero Teatro.
