The well-known play “Dialogue between a Prostitute and Her Client” by Dacia Maraini returns to the Italian stage, directed by Guglielmo Ferro, with the extraordinary participation of Simona Cavallari in the title role.
The show, which explores complex themes such as freedom of choice and the condition of women, will see Cavallari play Manila, a prostitute who confronts an economics student. The tour will touch several Italian cities, bringing this intricate tale to the public from February 22 to May 9, 2025.
A tale of challenges and introspection
Simona Cavallari masterfully takes on the role of Manila, a woman who practices her profession out of necessity, moving within a society that imposes harsh conditions. Alongside her, Federico Benvenuto plays a young client, offering a counterpart that enriches the scenic dynamics. The performance promises to explore human relationships and the theme of sentimental illusion, through exchanges that expose weaknesses and deceptions.
Timeless Reflections
Maraini's work, acclaimed for its intensity and depth, examines aspects of the female condition that persist today. Through a narrative that intertwines the historical context of the 1970s with personal insights, the text offers a powerful theatrical experience that invites reflection.
The tour dates promise a challenging but fascinating return to the origins of the story, allowing the audience to relive the narrative strength of Dacia Maraini and the vivid interpretation of Simona Cavallari.
