Romeo e Giulietta

Claudio Malangone / Borderline Danza (Campania)

Dates

Saturday 06 July, 2024 - 18.30

Udine, Sagrato della Chiesa di San Francesco, Largo Ospedale Vecchio

A man and a woman embody the Shakespearean myth of Romeo and Juliet. Loving recognition is a process at the same time serious and playful, expressing desire, consent, fear, dream, and idealization. In fact, anything seems possible, but families impose a set of social rules that exploit the relationship. Love becomes a juvenile challenge: in the eyes of the families, a stunt; in the eyes of Romeo and Juliet, a representation of their own freedom. Suicide is no longer about the protagonists and their earthly life, but about their feelings, which leave them abandoned and exhausted, like two lovers who have long kissed each other only through a veil.
