R.OSA by Silvia Gribaudi, featuring Claudia Marsicano, is a one-woman show that plays with stereotypes of body, beauty, and success. Ten ironic and powerful exercises transform the performance into a bodily revolution: the body becomes free, surprising, and capable of redefining the relationship between image, desire, and audience participation. An invitation to look, laugh, and feel in new ways.
Through irony, play, and bodies that speak without words, the day explores how the languages of the present can open breaches within the social sphere, transforming the perception of oneself and others, and inviting the audience to become active participants in possible worlds.
By taking part, you will also have the opportunity to experience Lose Voice Toolkit by Adele Dipasquale, a video installation that stages the power of silence and alternative forms of language. A group of children loses their voice and learns to communicate through gestures, glances, and sounds: every silence becomes a possibility, every movement a bridge toward new relationships.
A workshop-performance in which imagination becomes a tool of freedom and resistance to convention.
