LE NOZZE DI FIGARO
2019
The director thought of a large film studio during the golden age of Hollywood. The idea of disguise and fiction that abounds throughout the show is the starting point for this choice. We wanted to emphasize the way in which each character plays a role to get what he wants and masquerades as someone else by hiding his feelings. The theme of cinema, in which everyone pretends to be other than himself, adapted to the plot of the work.
The combination of video projection with musical drama is not simply a visual aid or a background for the show, but it becomes a real theatrical device that helps the development of the narration. In some moments it is used to make the viewer live memories, thoughts, otherwise impossible to show. In others it accompanies theatrical moments in complete harmony with the idea of a film studio, showing what is taken up by live video cameras.
