Boxing Valentine: A Psychological Thriller About Gender Violence
The stage will feature “Boxing Valentine,” a work by Emma Cianchi, which draws inspiration from the film “Boxing Helena” by Jennifer Chambers Lynch. The work addresses issues of significant social impact, with a particular focus on gender violence, presenting them in a crude and at times surreal way, avoiding clichés related to sexuality.
An immersive and engaging experience for the audience
The show takes place in a narrow and dark environment, where the immersive audio accompanies the viewer through a narration that explores the intricacies of an unhealthy and obsessive relationship between a man and a woman. The female protagonist, although absorbed in this relationship, is capable of accepting even the unimaginable, offering an intense reflection on human behavior. The use of bodies and stage illusions is central to the artistic proposal, managing to convey contrasting emotions and address issues of great social importance. The audience will find themselves faced with a production that intends to highlight the complexity of human relationships.
