The students of the IISS “De Nittis” of Barletta bring the Notre Dame de Paris to the stage

On Wednesday 29 May, at 9pm, the timeless will be on stage in Barletta Notre Dame de Paris. The protagonists are the students of De Nittis in Musicalsthe company of young actors and actresses from the “Léontine and Giuseppe De Nittis” Institute who, with the support of PNRR funds intended for training actions against school dropout, have had the pleasure of engaging, since last year, in workshops co- curricula aimed at strengthening their skills through music and the various disciplines underlying entertainment.

The story they chose to represent was born from the pen of Victor Hugo at the beginning of the 19th century, but is permeated by themes that continue to be current in their dramatic human depth: the fear of the different as “foreigner”, the difficulty of inclusion , the right to asylum, the ambiguity of false religions, the blaming of women, even bullying, and then love, the enchanting beauty, the revenge of those who feel rejected, the thin border between good and evil , which makes them interchangeable as are the “roles” that each one plays and which can subtly reverse in an increasingly fluid and complex society.

With a view to offering the citizens of Barletta always new opportunities to approach art and culture through the world of education, the head teacher of the IISS “De Nittis” Antonio Francesco Diviccaro, thanks also to the patronage of the municipality of Barletta, gave ample support to the project and to the teachers who helped the children carry it out.

Guest of honor of the evening, Graziano Galatone, well-known theater and television actor, several times interpreter of Phoebus, one of the protagonists of Notre Dame de Parisa testimony, therefore, full of emotional as well as artistic value, which the children will be able to treasure.

The show will be held in the square in front of the IISS “De Nittis” gym (entrance C) and participants can participate by invitation.
