SCHERMI URBANI
Curated by Gianluca Marziani

SCHERMI URBANI is a Christmas event of public art, strongly wished for by the City administration which entrusted director of Palazzo Collicola Visual Arts Gianluca Marziani with its artistic curatorship.

The event involves some twenty sites in downtown Spoleto, including two former newsstands (Piazza Collicola, Piazza della Libertà), Palazzetto Ancaiani’s six displays (Piazza della Libertà) and some further fifteen dispays scattered across the city centre (Corso Mazzini, Via del Mercato, Via Salara Vecchia, via Minervio): the locations will be coated with great images of contemporary art, created by five artists who already collaborate with Palazzo Collicola Visual Arts.

“After last summer’s performance by street artist Ob Queberry in Piazza del Mercato – said Head of Culture and Tourism Camilla Laureti and Head of Town Planning Antonio Cappelletti – for the Christmas period we wanted the displays of closed shops to become the base for artistic interventions. It is a way to have the city centre live again and to try and envision a different future for this part of the city. We thank the shop owners who accepted to be featured, director Gianluca Marziani and the artists who joined in.”

THE FOUR SEASONS – Spoleto’s Summer 2018 @ Spoleto
Jul 20 – Sep 2 all-day
<!--:it-->LE QUATTRO STAGIONI - Spoleto d'Estate<!--:--><!--:en-->THE FOUR SEASONS - Spoleto's Summer 2018<!--:--> @ Spoleto

Christian De Sica, Giancarlo Giannini, Caparezza, David Riondino, Kataklò dance company and Mauro Bigonzetti, the International Dance Gala Tribute to Rudolf Nureyev, the Teatro Lirico Sperimentale’s Eine Kleine Musik, Umbria Ensemble’s concerts of the dawn that pay homage to Leonard Bernstein and the Beatles: these are some of the protagonists and shows that make up the programme of THE FOUR SEASONS – Spoleto’s Summer, the cultural showcase of the Municipality of Spoleto that offers music, dance, theatre and literary events.

The summer programme of events also includes the mid-August events organized by PRO LOCO “A. Busetti”, as well as conferences, guided city walks, social events organized by various associations of the city including the State Archives of Perugia – Spoleto section, Cinema Sala Pegasus, Spoleto Studi d’Arte, Laudesi Umbri choir. Many exhibitions are also on display, such as the ones in Palazzo Collicola Arti Visive, Masterpieces of the 14th century at Rocca Albornoz, Diocesan Museum and Basilica of S. Eufemia, the one dedicated to the Festival of 1959 at the State Archives of Spoleto, Giacomo Ramaccini’s installation, Deposito d’autore at Casa Menotti and Figurazioni Musicali at the Galleria d’Arte e Tessuti.

Giancarlo Giannini opens the programme – Friday, July 20 (21.15) at the Roman Theatre – with the recital LE PAROLE NOTE, a meeting between literature and music that sees on stage, along with the great actor, the Marco Zurzolo Quartet with accordionist Luciano Biondini as special guest. An event by I Love Spoleto.

On Saturday, July 21 (h. 21.15) the dance show MEDITERRANEA will be staged at the Roman Theatre. A choreographic circumnavigation through the music of cultures overlooking the Mediterranean. A show that was born in 1993 for the Balletto di Toscana and that immediately got a resounding success. For its 15th anniversary, in 2008, he was re-produced for the Teatro alla Scala company, marking Mauro Bigonzetti’s first Scala debut. Mediterranea is a production by Daniele Cipriani. An event by I Love Spoleto.

The Kataklò Athletic Dance Theatre will perform in the splendid setting of the Roman Theatre on Friday, July 27 at 21.15 with READY, a show specially designed by Giulia Staccioli, with spectacular choreographies taken from Eureka (2016), Puzzle (2012) and Play (2008), maintaining the dynamic, athletic, poetic and original spirit that has made the Kataklò the most loved and requested Italian company of athletic theater in the world. An event by I Love Spoleto.

Another important dance appointment will take place on Saturday, July 28 at 21.00, still at the Roman Theatre: the Great International Dance Gala tribute to Rudolf Nureyev, by Daniele Cipriani. Eighty years after its birth and twenty-five years after his death, the show is a journey through the most significant stages of the extraordinary artist’s career. The refined multimedia projections by video artist Massimiliano Siccardi will be accompanied, at the beginning, by a rare recording directed by Nureyev. An event by I Love Spoleto.

Double appointment – Friday 10th and Saturday 11th August ( Teatro Caio Melisso, h. 18.00) – with the Teatro Lirico Sperimentale and EINE KLEINE MUSIK 2018: a musical tribute to LA FRANCE with pieces by Erik Satie, Gabriel Fauré and Francis Poulenc. Afterwards, BA-TA-CLAN, the famous opera that marked the first great success of Jacques Offenbach, based on Ludovic Halévy’s libretto. Direction and staging by Giorgio Bongiovanni and Lisa Nava with the Soloists of Spoleto’s Teatro Lirico Sperimentale “A. Belli”.

Saturday August 18, at the Complesso Monumentale di San Nicolò (h. 21.30), David Riondino will be the protagonist of IL DIO DENARO (Non avrai altro Dio all’infuori di me) e altre letture (Italian for THE MONEY GOD – Thou shalt have no other gods before me – and other readings).
It is a special event included in the Libro d’Ingresso series, that marks a further step in the artistic collaboration between David Riondino and musician Fabrizio De Rossi Re.

Two concerts at dawn are organized by Umbria Ensemble chamber group, both of which will be held at the Rocca Albornoziana. The first one will take place on Saturday 11 August at 6.10, a tribute to Leonard Bernstein on the occasion of the hundredth anniversary of the great composer’s birth. The second one, Da Vivaldi ai Beatles, on Saturday 25 August at 6.25, will be a musical journey from Vivaldi to Boccherini, passing through some Beatles’ repertoire, reinterpreted by guitarist Leo Brouwer.

On Friday, August 31 at 21.30, Italian singer Caparezza will perform at the Municipal Stadium, with its Prisoner 709 Tour. The Tour promotes the homonymous seventh studio album by the brilliant artist, songwriter and rapper whose most peculiar expressive feature is stylistic contamination and sound eclecticism. An event by I Love Spoleto.

The full programme of The Four Seasons – Spoleto’s Summer includes many other events organized in collaboration with various cultural associations such as the recitals NOTE LETTERE curated by ‘G. Carducci’ and ‘G. Carandente’ libraries in collaboration with Teatro Lirico Sperimentale di Spoleto ‘A. Belli’, and INCONTRI MUSICALI 2018 at Rocca Albornoz and Church of Sant’Agata (curated by Spoleto Studi d’Arte) on August 15, 17, 19, 23, 24, 26, 30, 31 and September 2.

OUVERTURES DES SAPONETTES
Studio TA-DAA!

by and with Michele Cafaggi
2016 Franco Enriquez prize winner
directed by Davide Fossati

An eccentric conductor will take you into the fragile and round world of soap bubbles for a “concert” where the unexpected is always around the corner: strange instruments create giant, bouncing, strolling and clustering bubbles! A visual tale without a word that draws inspiration from the atmosphere of circus and variety, a magical show of clowning, pantomime and music that, born for children, ends up enchanting the audience of any age.

Fontemaggiore – Donati & Olesen
by and with Giorgio Donati and Jacob Olesen

A comic workshop on comic theatre: four lessons and a final exam, all in the space of a show. The aim is to show the youngest audience the essential aspects of the ancient art of making people laugh, revealing its rules, tricks and some secrets. Giorgio Donati, the Umbrian, and Jacob Olesen, the Danish, are wacky and unleashed professors who make use of their 20-year long experience to create this show. A serious lecture full of fun and laughter.

THE TOY SHOP
CREST – Coop. teatrale

with Delia De Marco, Valentina Elia, Giuseppe Marzio
text and direction Sandra Novellino and Delia De Marco

The story happens in a toy shop that, as in children’s imagination, come alive and come to life. And, just like it happens in real life, there is a more beautiful doll, an envious one, a teddy bear who falls in love, a jealous soldier, and carousels and little cars that always turn around! A parallel world that helps children experience emotions, switching from joy to disappointment, from melancholy to happiness, from love to resentment. The show is aimed at younger children; it is the result of many years of experience in kindergartens, looking for the most effective theatrical language to address to such a particular and demanding audience.

THE ISLAND OF NEVERLAND… IS NOW A FOREVERLAND
Ass. Culturale Tieffeu

by and with Francesca Prete and Riccardo Toccacielo
direction, sets and puppets by Mario Mirabassi

This is a true, or almost true, story that could take place anywhere, in any city of the world. It is the story of a group of young people and of an abandoned and uncultivated green space, the only one left among buildings and concrete, the last meeting point of the children of the district. But one day that space is taken away from them to build a large gambling center owned by the local boss who dominates the entire city. From here, the story develops with their parents and LIBERA association coming to support the children’s action.

THE MAGNIFICENT IMPOSTOR
Teatro Laboratorio Brescia

by and with Alessandra Domeneghini
directed by Sergio Mascherpa

“What would you have done in my place?” This is the question that Giorgio Perlasca addresses to his interlocutor, to raise many other questions… Would I be able to oppose the horrible facts I am witnessing? Would I risk my life to save unknown people? Would I be able to draw on that part of myself that tries to fight injustice? It is precisely because of the many reflections that his story manages to generate that we want to talk about him again, about the “magnificent impostor”: and we would like to do so because the times we are living in are difficult times, and they often require us to appeal to the moral strength that we carry inside ourselves.

FIABA LUPA
Compagnia Anfiteatro

Sixth appointment with La Domenica dei Sogni: Sunday 10 February at 16.30 at the Teatro Nuovo Gian Carlo Menotti, Fiaba Lupa by Giampiero Pizzol, directed by Piero Lenardon of Compagnia Anfiteatro; the play is suitable for children aged 4 to 10.

The wolf is possibly the most ubiquitous character in traditional fairy tales, always playing the villain, scary yet somehow enthralling. A comic pair of two clowns is featured in Fiaba Lupa, Mr. Circo Lupesco and Miss Musica Fiaba (Bano Ferrari and Naya Dedemailan). They both yearn for achieving their dreams (becoming a tamer and performing a great trumpet solo live) yet none of them leaves room to the other one, and it’s only thanks to the help of Mr. Bella Idea that they finally settle their disputes and stage a play in which the wolf is the main character.
