From 10 to 12 Mar: Les Etourdis
Les Etourdis are "the scatterbrains" born from the creative
genius of Deschamps - great observers of the pettiness that make up
daily relations. They are people prone to chaos, who are vulnerable
and whose bodies escape their control. They are little robots, victims
of their bosses, who are immersed in music made up of bells, trumpets,
ukuleles and accordions.

From 8 Mar to 2 Apr: Marisa Laurito, Fioretta Mari, Fiordaliso and Crystal
White in Menopause the musical
One of the most significant moments in a woman's life - the menopause
- is explored here with irony and imagination, and even set to music.
The menopause in this production has the face of four women who lead
different lives but often bicker about the same things and discover
that they are all going through the same experience made up moments
of discomfort, hot flushes and yearnings for chocolate. This show delves
beyond common clichés and examines a very important and delicate
moment in a woman's existence, attempting to uncover its very essence.
Choreography by Patty Bender. Directed by Manuela Metri. www

Until 5 Mar: Momix Dance Theatre in Sun Flower Moon
The Italian step of Moses Pendleton's Momix Dance Theatre Tour. A surprising
spectacle inspired by the themes of the sun, flowers and the moon. Every
Momix show plays with shapes that make people reflect on the uncertain
confines between the animated world and that of geometric figures. The
dancers create extraordinary and impressive drawings and animated characters.

From 14 Mar to 13 Apr: C'era una volta... scugnizzi
A sparkling musical laden with Neapolitan vitality and energy in which
young people put on a musical (within the musical) while serving a sentence
in a correctional centre for minors. With Neapolitan classics such as
"A città 'e Pulcinella", "Scètate scè",
"Perzone perzone", "Ajére" and "Parlanno
parlanno" in the background the audience witnesses how a group
of former inmates and friends lose sight of one another once they are
out of prison. Even the paths of the two main protagonists will separate;
Saverio will become a priest and Raffaele a mafia boss. Tue, wed, fri,
sat h21; sun h17 and h21
