Theatre (international, multimedia)
Italian Cultural Institute Edinburgh, The Edinburgh Festival Fringe
An extravagant presenter introduces a contrived comedic plot: two lovers, an old father, a suitor… Everything seems familiar, but something unexpected is coming. From within the machine-like workings of a cliche, feel good TV show, revolution is brewing: a fight against the Tyranny of Happiness. Can the Machina and its predefined schemes be destroyed by these primordial stirrings? Or is rebellion only the umpteenth gear of the machine? Innovatively combining video projection and Commedia dell’Arte, this is a spellbinding performance blending exquisite stagecraft with a searching philosophy. English and Italian (with English subtitles).
