The latent voice
(first movement)
An actress, Raquel Ferri, gives birth. And an actress, Raquel Ferri, plays the night and day during which she gave birth.
Dreams can also be a matter of life or death. In this dream, the actress multiplies into different women, and prepares to give birth. And in some moment (from the past or the future) he relives the desires, the fears, the hopes, the friction of the bodies in transformation.
At the decisive moment of childbirth, real life and acting embrace and look into each other's eyes, just as it always does in our lives.

THEATER
Is it legitimate to exercise violence in any situation? Can we use it for purely artistic purposes? Who can and with what intentions?
We have denied violence and that is why we no longer know how to react to it.
This hypothetical play or performance takes place in a train carriage, it is a real sequence shot, it takes the time just between two metro stops and you are its only spectator.
What will you do? What would you do? What are you doing?
High Season Spot 2011
This it's possible focuses on the audience and man's atavistic need for catharsis, emphasizing the long list of facial and body expressions that any audience makes unconsciously and mechanically. A fascinating visual experience where we will all see ourselves reflected.
speak of'a primary need of man now and in the past, which has always moved him to make theater inside prehistoric caves, later in the theaters of Greece and up to the present day.
Tragedy, the song of the goat
Why is everything falling apart? We have forgotten where we came from and do not know where we are going. Everything dies and to be born again you have to be willing to die. If we are lost, why don't we look back? Our tragedy is already 4000 years old. Lyrical tribute to ancient Greece, essential cradle of what we are, and its tragedy today, which is also ours. Love song to the humanistic origin of our culture, the basis of Western rational thought. Tragedy is the origin of everything.

Spot Temporada Alta 2009
A theater festival is like a melon: you have to open it to know how it is.
As a fruit, the melon has many virtues (against depression, for example) and is used in different cures. Apart from being a fruit, however, it has several symbolisms that can give rise to many, sometimes suggestive, interpretations.
#3 The far right scene
The rise of the extreme right is a global phenomenon. On the European continent, it is being demonstrated with attacks on various groups by their violent factions, to electoral results that have even led to the presidency of the ultra parties of countries with so much weight in the European Union like Italy How is this reality transferred to theatrical settings? How should we respond from the current creation? How is democracy preserved? Is the anti-fascist position something for all democrats? We talk about it in this episode that aims to overcome hate speech.
#2 Contemporary creation
Labels always cause problems, especially when we want to label things that are difficult to label. Stage installations, the theater of objects or the so-called "theatre without theatre" are described with terms such as contemporary creation, new dramaturgies, multidisciplinary, hybrid... But the fact is that the performing arts are not always, by definition , contemporary, multidisciplinary and hybrid? We talk to three pairs of creators who have a lot to say on the subject. And that, in addition, they put on fantastic shows.
The Cave Vol. 2 Romeo Castellucci
La Caverna is an audiovisual project where a series of artists who have been through Temporada Alta and linked to the festival reflect on their career, the performing arts and the world of creation, together with other artists, journalists and international personalities from the world of the culture
#1 Based on true events
It's been years since reality entered the theaters and took over the stage. As has also happened with the rise of the essay in literature or the documentary in audiovisuals, creators and audiences have become interested in theater that speaks not only of reality but also of the present. Because? Do we need to understand the permanent crisis we live in? Has fiction distanced the theater from the spectator? Are we tired of the 'lies'? Is the theater the best space for collective reflection?
#6 Lorca, always valid
In the 21st century, not a year goes by that the works of Federico García Lorca do not set foot on our stages, always with public success and always with that validity that only true classics achieve. Why do Federico's words sound so close to us today? What made it so popular? What would you think of the readings and adaptations that are made today of his work? And the problems of access to culture that he already denounced and that we still suffer?
