For the third round, the ninth regional amateur theater festival - prize city of Taranto "Talia", houses the company "TaliAnxa. The group, from Gallipoli (LE), will stage "Mamma's letter" a farce Peppino De Filippo. We listened to Francesco Cortese, representing the company.
Al "Talia" comes the first company does not Taranto. For us to host a boast, but it also raises
curiosity. Tell your story in brief.
TaliAnxa (www.talianxa.com) from several years is committed to promoting cultural diversity, is one of the companies, now established in the Salento territory that has a real school of theater, which brings young people to art and drama for the past ten years. The company directed by Pino Della Rocca (Talia Award winner for Best Actor with the comedy Volpone Volpone &) began as a non-profit organization, and then promoted volunteerism (fundraising for non-profit associations such as the Telethon, Heart Friend, Rainbow on Tanzania, etc.). TaliAnxA can claim to be a company established by years of successful releases with the staging of several books by Pirandello, Campanile, Feyedeau, Petrolini, De Filippo, Moliere, Bell Tower, etc., as well as theatrical scripts and compiled by the authors of the Company.
to stage "The letter from Mamma," a farce Peppino De Filippo. As you cross this choice with participation in an event in language?
After the successes of the past season with the staging of As You think of Luigi Pirandello, the company has decided to present the public with a lighter text Peppino De Filippo, The letter Mama, one of the most hilarious comedy written by the Naples, directed by Pino Della Rocca that contrary to what you may think has decided to eliminate the Neapolitan cadence thus giving the work a wider reading. plot revolves around the encounter between two families from different social backgrounds: the first, formed by an uncle and a nephew, noble, now fallen and reduced to poverty, seeking only a good economic and the second formed by wealthy bourgeois, nobility that hungry, desperately trying to rise socially. The meeting due to the traditional marriage broker expert combined, will compare these different realities in a crescendo of tragicomic situations.
Another challenge is the chorus: eleven actors on stage, in contrast with the new
trends in the field of theater, which ultimately prefer comedies with a few actors. Eleven players from direct, but also to contain eleven comedians ... Will was fantastic, the tests!
Sure! The shows with a lot of players have higher production costs and then ultimately there is a tendency to develop shows minimal to keep costs down. In fact, from a theatrical point of view a company with many players is more difficult to manage but also very funny especially in a comedy like this where the pace is very high and are directed are often born from improvisation to play but at the same time creative.
Piazzaebalia is very close to the theater, a fact that Taranto is followed by people, but
Piazzaebalia is very close to the theater, a fact that Taranto is followed by people, but
copo by the media, with the result that, because of little information, many eventual spectators remain ignorant and theaters, sometimes not filled as expected. What the reality of Gallipoli?
Unfortunately it is very similar. We try with all our forces to educate the public. Our advice is to eat in culture, reading, listening to good music, going to see exhibitions and theater ... in short, to invest in their education!
What do you think of the Prize "Talia"? What do you expect?
What can I say ... we go back for the second year. The previous experience was very interesting for the whole company from the artistic point of view but also from the human point of view. Recall still enjoy the full and cordial hospitality Dino Spadaro and the entire Space Theatre company which is once again our thanks and praise for their commitment to what I would call quixotic ...
Greetings and thanks also Piazzaebalia to the work of cultural promotion ... which is never enough
.
We thank them and expect them eager to enter the world of theater "Peppino De Filippo" ...
