LiTTLE DOTS<\/strong><\/h1>\n

by and with Matteo Cionini<\/em>
Mime performance for all ages<\/em><\/p>\n

on stage there is nothing, there is silence, just an actor and his empty suitcase.
And a dot.
<\/span>How is it possible to make a whole show out of just a dot?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Therein lies the magic: out of nothing can come games, jokes, objects, impossible stories, interstellar travel… Thanks to the Art of Mime, the audience is guided to see the invisible, in a crescendo of perceptual possibilities beyond reality.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is the power of imagination, the magic of observing together something invisible that nevertheless exists!<\/span><\/p>\n

Target audience: 3 – 120 years old<\/p>\n

RIDING THE NONEXISTENT<\/h1>\n

By and with Mara Scagli and Matteo Cionini<\/em>
Based on “Il Cavaliere Inesistente” by Italo Calvino<\/em><\/p>\n

What happens when we get bored?
Is it better to play in total freedom or by following the rules?
Can a book really train the imagination? Lia and Teo try hard to escape the boredom of an ordinary afternoon. Thanks to an adventure book they will discover they can play with the greatest power of all: imagination! <\/span><\/p>\n

“Riding the Inexistent” is a performance of physical theater, storytelling and object theater. A tribute to Italo Calvino and one of his most imaginative works. <\/p>\n

Target audience: 7 – 12 years old<\/p>\n

I’M NOT COMING DOWN FROM HERE!<\/h1>\n

by and with Matteo Cionini<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Performance loosely based on Italo Calvino’s The Baron in the Trees.
Biagio Piovasco di Rond\u00f2 is in search of his brother Cosimo; the meeting with the audience becomes an opportunity to recount his incredible exploits, surrounded by an evocative setting of tree-books.<\/p>\n

A storytelling show with mime, clown, puppetry and constant audience involvement.<\/p>\n

It made its debut in 2015 at Legambiente’s national festival “FestAmbiente.”<\/p>\n

Target audience: 6 – 11 years old.<\/p>\n

ALLEGRO!<\/h1>\n

SYMPHONY SHOW
by and with Matteo Cionini<\/p>\n

“Whoever thinks Classical Music is boring, raise your hand!”
It begins like this. And usually more than half of the children do.
At the end of the performance, “Whoever thinks Classical Music can be fun, raise your hand!” All children raise their hands, adults smile.<\/p>\n

Since 2008, this show has been repeated more than 500 times in theaters, schools, gyms, squares, backyards. Everywhere, making children, adults, old people laugh. <\/p>\n

Target audience: 3 – 99+ years old.<\/p>\n
