Article Key Points
. This mini theatre festival, conceived and directed by Antonello Ronga, has already been a great success in the first two evenings held at Villa Guariglia on 13 and 14 July. Now, the attention shifts to Fratte where the last two shows will be held on 16 and 17 July with free admission until all seats are taken.
The start with “Shakespeare in Love”
The first of the last appointments will be held on July 16 at 21:XNUMX p.m. and will include a performance by the students of the Accademia dello Spettacolo e del Musical di Baronissi. The students will stage “Shakespeare in Love,” a show that mixes music and theater under the direction of Serena Stella.
The immortal Shakespearean monologues, from “Romeo and Juliet” to “Henry IV”, from “The Merchant of Venice” to “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”, will resonate in a setting that will revive the magic of the great William Shakespeare. Modern pop notes will blend with the words of the bard, creating an atmosphere in which music and theater become one.
A mix of emotions and modern notes
The dramatic power of Shakespearean theatre will intertwine with modern musical pieces, blurring the line between reality and representation. This fascinating combination will demonstrate once again how contemporary Shakespeare is and how his works continue to enchant and excite today's audiences.
Last night with a magical show
July 17th will be the culmination of the mini theatre festival with an evening that will begin at 20.30:XNUMX pm with a musical performance by the Salerno baritone Michele Ricciardi.
Following, at 21:XNUMX p.m., the students of the Teatro Ridotto will perform “Sogno di una notte” directed by Antonello Ronga. This show, inspired by “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” is a work that blends love, magic, and subtle uneasiness.
A journey into the magical territories of dreams
“A Night's Dream” transforms a forest into a forest that is not, and a summer into a winter, in a tangle of paradoxical and mysterious events. Love, the protagonist of the plot, emerges in all its forms and distortions: comedians in love with money, lovers blinded by irrational passion.
Reality dissolves, leaving room for the fruit of imagination and taking the spectator on a dreamlike journey made of deep and contrasting emotions, until the real world mixes with the dream world. The shows offered in this mini theatrical review offer participants the unique opportunity to experience and rediscover the power and beauty of William Shakespeare's works in a suggestive setting such as the archaeological area of Fratte.
