Characters and Dynamics
The story is distinguished by the presence of Vincenzo, Don Ciro's sacristan, whose comic character intertwines with that of the parish priest. The relationship between the two provides the audience with hilarious moments, enriching the narration with touches of irony and humor. The story also features Loredana Piedimonte, Giosiano Felago and Carmen Landolfi, who enrich the cast.
Reflections and Values
"Grisù, Giuseppe e Maria" is not just a comedy; it also invites reflection on the loss of fundamental values in contemporary society, underscoring the importance of the educational principles that once formed the cornerstone of social life. The play seems to rekindle the dialogue on these issues through a historical and cultural lens.
