"Mis-Smarco," a female-led satire on the "Divine Comedy" of life, debuts at the Teatro Serra in Naples. Created and performed by Valentina Illuminati, the show will run from December 20th to 22nd in Fuorigrotta, at Via Diocleziano 316.
A Satireful Irreverence on Everyday Life
Brought to the stage by Valentina Illuminati with the production of Elsinor Centro di Produzione Teatrale and Numeri 11, "Mis-Smarco" ironically recounts the experiences of an ordinary woman. The comical and accessible story explores the life of a woman born in the Marche region, offering a sparkling mosaic of everyday moments that reflect the multiple roles of daughter, sister, partner, and more.
A Path of Transformation
Just shy of turning 40, the protagonist decides to break free from traditional labels to explore a range of different personalities and characters. Through narration, dialogue, and monologues, the story unfolds like a "plot buffet" where each viewer can choose what to take away from the performance. The blend of lightheartedness, irony, and irreverence offers audiences an opportunity to reflect on the small, everyday events that can have a significant impact on our lives.
The Right Words to Tell Life
Valentina Illuminati emphasizes how life, with its own rhythms and setbacks, should be experienced as a 'Divine Comedy': "Ultimately, by choosing the right words, we can truly change history, perhaps even our own..." The performance invites audiences to break free from social conventions, abandon imposed perfection, and embrace life's nuances with irony.
