Emotional mimicry is the process by which we understand the other's emotion by mimicking their expressionor movement. The road to the other passes, even before language, through their face and thejoy, fear, disgust, curiosity, anger sadness it expresses. The performance/exhibition of feelings outwards helps us navigate, understand and express our needs to one another. But could they also be controlled and virtuosically manipulated to one's advantage?

Salvo Lombardo's Outdoor dance floor performance is conceived as a dance platform for spaces not dedicated to clubbing, through which the ballroom space is reinterpreted in unconventional spaces. Continuing the research on how the spaces of club culture open up a dimension in which dance and music become a territory of liberation of bodies, the performers Daria Greco and Salvo Lombardo invite the audience to join the dancing action after their performance.
Direction, scenes, costumes: Giorgia Cerruti Adaptation of Pirandello's work by Fabrizio Sinisi With Davide Giglio, Giorgia Cerruti, Woody Neri, Silvia Ferretti Stage design, light design: Lucio Diana Sound design, composition, sound: Guglielmo Diana Company technician: Marco Ferrero Light giver: Adriano Antonucci Organization manager: Angelo Pastore Company secretary: Emanuela Faiazza A performance by Piccola Compagnia della Magnolia, in co-production with CTB/Centro Teatrale Bresciano, Operaestate Festival; with the support in residence of Scarti / Centro di Produzione Teatrale di Innovazione, La Spezia.
Part of the "Progetto Vulnerabili", this reinterpretation of the famous Pirandello's pièce arises from the director's curiosity for the architecture, for those masked characters who move in a fake palace and that no one seems to recognize. But also from the awareness that perhaps Enrico's madness is just a way to see better and live an alternative existence: a desire for transformation that is also a biological, theatrical, spiritual theme. From Enrico's hermitage, during which he loses the only love of his life, his friends, his memories, accompanied by the anxiety of escaping the flowing time, a journey is born for four actors inside Pirandello's words.
"It seems that Enrico completes a hermitage of twelve years, during which he loses the only love of his life, his friends, his memories. And the anxiety of escaping the flowing time increases. So, while everything passes , she - the loved woman - instead remains there, stuck in a frozen beauty, perfect in memory and in a feeling not experienced enough to become corrupted. There is something sinister in this plasticization that refuses death and corruption. I would try to understand the reason of this terror. Giorgia Ceruti

Two performers play with a disparate series of images seeking to impart their own interpretation, resulting in an experience that is intensified by being distorted, paused and repeated. Paraskevopoulou’s MOS is a scenic game operating among the many hidden relations that exist between movement, sound, and image. Amplifying narratives that arise out of the mutual interplay and co-existence of seemingly incongruous archival sources, this piece brings visibility to elements that cannot easily be seen or heard.

Delivery is a performative project of the collective Elevator Bunker that stems from the desire to investigate the theme of happiness understood as the mood of those who consider their desires fulfilled. Happiness is in relationships, in the bonds we establish with others, with friends and family, in personal growth and in the free expression of our creativity. There is no better way to tell who we are than by revealing our most hidden happiness. In Delivery the performers go through a choreographic narration whose development is based on the sharing of motor sequences, individual or group improvisations and suspensions of the scenic flow. A game without fiction and without savings where the dancers transform their fragility into strengths. Understanding one’s own happiness, demanding it, desiring it, escaping reality and finally observing oneself through the gaze of the audience are aspects in continuous evolution that influence the performance scene and the relationship with the audience. What makes me happy? When can I be happy? How can I be happy? These questions are the starting points of an intimate and deep reflection that the performers go through revealing unexpected passions, desires and joys. Delivery is a spectacle of the need to be happy unconditionally, without fear of being judged or excluded. The performance is to be considered the continuation of the previous projects of the collective Elevator Bunker, which investigated the theme of identity and coexistence of differences.
Elevator Bunker collective was born in 2008 from an idea of Matteo Maffesanti and Davide Pachera as an active response to the desire for artistic research in the field of intellectual disability. The many years of experience gained by both in the social field leads them to activate a path that, through the performing arts and body language, can become an opportunity for growth and inclusion. The fundamental objective of the project is to create an open and accessible environment in which to express their creativity, considering individual characteristics not as a limit but as an important resource in artistic creation. Since 2017 Elevator Bunker has been active in numerous international projects of social inclusion promoted by the CSC of Bassano del Grappa and is a member of Europe Beyond Access Italia, network aimed at questioning and discussing the issues of accessibility and inclusion in the performing arts to generate awareness, spread knowledge and experience of good practices, encourage greater participation and leadership of artists and cultural workers with disabilities. In 2023 the company was selected for the project Boarding Pass, Performing No Limit supported by the Italian Ministry of Culture and creates the performance Delivery, a production Zebra Cultural Zoo in co production with Fondazione Teatro Comunale di Vicenza and the support of Operaestate Festival Veneto and La Corte Ospitale.
