The show was conceived, written, directed and acted (in that part of the marchesa Luisa Casati Stampa) Mariaelena Masetti Zannini and proposed to follow the presentation that illustrated:

The work is a concert of souls from the garden of remembrance of the great poet issa round time is frightened and darting in ultimate.
The sacred and the profane in Gabriele D'annunzio are the two gateways to the third, where the poet's primal impulses back to unleash clairvoyance orba, through scenes of real life and legends passed down about the inspirations of his poetry.
Not a response to him, but never given to deeper questions you will learn between lines of text, the verb of the feminine, its profile plus secret.
Women, for the poet, appear as a vehicle for transcendence, a through spiritualist who gut meat to implement an eternal sacrifice, in honor of the self, glorification of Superman that has over time created, in the artwork of his own life, that Inimitable life that the whole world knows thanks to the writings, but certainly not for voice of those who really knew and damn loved.
A circulating structure has various characters heraclitean, each of them in doubles, where he has bestowed upon him.
Life and death stun in rippling water that leads continuously at the origin, the birth of tragedy, the Chief in Serpent's tail biting its own tail, to his mother, the Earth.
Twice as much in D'Annunzio is a ghost who still lives on his ship, eternally motionless when the water dries up. Flashforward, concealed already in the future.

Live painting, brought about by the Alchemy of Marco Fathy and his experience on the body as a canvas, and Symbolist imagery of Isle of the dead by Böcklin, concocted by the protagonist-via Joseph Talarico, Weaver unaware of a picture, which like a book, you will’ only during closing, emerged, to be able to admire.
The show debuted in Rome last may at the Teatro Di Documenti and saw the participation of artist anno zero live and Julius Kaiser who have worked for this in a live performance inspired by the mother and son. He also played the sacred role of anno zero live Luisa De Benedictis.
Special thanks to their participation. "

The above presentation, having watched the show, who writes, in a sign of the respect for the great poet of Italian literature which is totally missed during the evening, chooses not to follow reviewing, adding only a notation purely tied to good taste, an illustrious absent also: among so many evocations, right the literary of D'annunzio was silenced, nor much less has warned shadow of the charm of that atmosphere of decadent elegance of which in reality were infused with the life and works of the great poet and making many of its women the undisputed protagonists not only of his loves and his vices, but often of the glitterati and, above all, with the stage, making them also Duse style icons that marked an era.
