Pollicino

The performance was presented at the Festival Danae, Milano, at the Festival Alt.05 de VIgo, Vigo (Spain). The latest chapter if the tetralogy that Lenz Rifrazioni dedicated to the Grimm Brothers fairytales, Pollicino (Tom Thumb) leads to an atomic vision of theatre. The acting scene is comparable to the inferior, the nanosferic space, the bacterial dramaturgy, a genetic engeenering lab where the vibrio manifest himself as hero in the midst of mud and filth. Intestinal vicissitudes, gastric voyages, defecations, lynching, feasts, all compose the plastic dramaturgy in the tragedy of the minimal child. The diminutive brother of Oedypus and Filottete, Pollicino is the tragic measure of Glory. The little one doesn't remain idle but proceeds in his harsh way - a way filled with trials. A prophecy of imperfect birth, the winning body with an under - glasslife resists the nutritional challenge and the abandonment. Horseride psychic and still - life physic, the hero is measured for a similar zero and he's not beaten but answers to the call of his destiny: uneared, moused, snailed, cowed, wolfed, shat, cesaread, dead, he resurrects blessed and freed from programmed exercise.
