The Dispensa/Barzotti company is about to present an innovative show called “The Barnard loop” at the Teatro Area Nord. This event, which combines clown and nouvelle magic, has won a position among the finalists in the “inboxproject 2025” competition. The performances are scheduled for Saturday, April 5 at 19:00 p.m. and Sunday, April 6 at 18:00 p.m.
A fascinating production
Conceived and directed by Alessandra Ventrella together with Rocco Manfredi, the show features Jacopo Maria Bianchini and Rocco Manfredi. **”The Barnard loop”** invites the audience to explore the human soul through magic, reanimating everyday objects in unexpected ways. This visual narrative aims to reveal fears and hopes by comparing physical laws with the power of imagination.
A dreamlike experience
The work raises questions about scenarios in which **”our room and our objects were to disappear, move or levitate against our will?”** The captivating fusion of mystery and the search for inner balance is accentuated by scenic elements such as an endless mocha and a bed full of secrets, offering the audience an environment in which reality and dream coexist.
Accessibility and support
The Teatro Area Nord guarantees easy access with the Polibus shuttle service, provided by the Municipality of Naples. The cultural interest and relevance of the event for the city are supported by the Ministry of Culture, the Campania Region and the Municipality of Naples itself.
