1 – 12 Dec 2013
Theatre Workshop with Filomena Campus
PART 1 Levels of Tension
In the first sessions the theme of ‘tension’ will be explored through specific theatrical techniques and applied to parts of the text Certi Pomeriggi non passano mai (Some afternoons never seem to end, Nottetempo 2009) by the Italian writer Mario Fortunato.
At the end of the five sessions (first phase) of the workshop, some of the participants will be selected to participate to the open rehearsal of Certi Pomeriggi non passano mai.
On 12 December the workshop participants will present their personal adaptation/interpretation of a part of the text (max 5 minutes) as well as another performance of their choice (max 3 minutes) that allows them to express their skills and talent. They can use theatre/performance art/music/physical theatre/dance/spoken word/digital and visual art. They can work alone or in groups of max 3 people.

THE TEXT: Certi Pomeriggi non passano mai by Mario Fortunato
A short and engaging gay theatre monologue that analyzes the tension created by waiting for a beloved who is late for an appointment. The wait stretches for hours and creates controversial emotions and anxiety ironically described by the author, with hilarious moments that go from drama to comedy to the surreal, in a sort of ‘one man’ Waiting for Godot.
