A heterogeneous group that has shared a path of theatrical creation, in a continuous exchange between experience and freshness, professionalism and instinct.
«In a time in which we fight wars through people, protecting ourselves from the perception of reality – states director Elena Dragonetti – we want to return to the Homeric song of the tragic unfolding of violence, of the moment in which the awareness of having been nailed down by destiny reduces the delirium of power turns to ashes and makes winners and vanquished children of the same misery.”
