The balcony of the Sibillini – this is how San Ginesio is called because of its spectacular view of the central Apennines – hosts the fifth edition of the Ginesio Fest, a theater festival until August 25th.
It started in front of a large audience, many artists from all over Italy and the special support of the authorities, the fifth edition of Ginesio Fest, a festival of theater arts directed by Leonardo Lidi and created by Isabella Parrucci started from a great love for the area. Some people know, in fact, San Ginesio, the patron saint of the village, is the protector of artists, artists, artists and luthiers, which is why he decided to honor him by creating an event that will bring the picture in. Really peaceful and equipped with great outdoor spaces in the area of Macerata.
At that time, and this still applies today, it was a question of not letting a place that was significantly affected by the 2016 earthquake, which is now being resurrected thanks to many open construction sites and ongoing projects active, intended to recover the urban structure, central history, the valleys unfortunately destroyed the church and appeared in the theater. Meanwhile, Ginesio Fest takes place in outdoor spaces of evocative beauty, such as the “Giulietta Masina” gardens and the Sant’Agostino Cloister: also found here l’Agboalso used in case of rain for exhibitions Village art gallery with works of some value.
The launch was formally held in the Hall last Sunday, in the presence of the Artistic Director Leonardo Lidi, who was on stage by the artist Christian La Rosa, and with the participation of the main local authorities: from the Mayor Giuliano Ciabocco to the Regional Council Pierpaolo Borroni. , from the President of the Unione Montana Monti Azzurri Giampiero Feliciotti to the organizer Isabella Parrucci. Then it takes place in the bedroom an Orange Aperitif, so called because it was organized by the Association of Orange Flag countries – Marche Region.
“I bring greetings from President Acquaroli and from the Extraordinary Commissioner for the Reconstruction of the Land 2016 Guido Castelli, who will be here on the evening of Sunday 25 August and has done a lot for the recovery of our region – said Mayor Ciabocco – We have reached the fifth year of the Ginesio Fest that has grown a lot and is doing amazing things, above all thanks to the team of professionals who work behind it. You can see for yourself that we are in a big problem, because unfortunately the reduction of work and different obstacles also prevent us from using the theater and indoor places. This is a great activity that involves the whole community, and children from other parts of Italy. We are a village of artists and we will try to be more and more“.
“The Ginesio Fest was born from a deep attachment and love for San Ginesio – explains creator Isabella Parrucci – which has been combined with my love for theater. We find ourselves in a dark time due to the earthquake and Covid, however these precarious conditions create the opportunity to bring the studio back out of the big cities: into the villages, into the open spaces, in relationship with the local community that brings us . Every year I appreciate you more and more. From the beginning we thought of a festival of national calibereven if you have the first it is only three days; today we can count many more events, thanks to the people who cooperate and work hard to ensure that this festival grows over time. I can say that I am very proud. “
The first time of the evening opening – due to the absence of Valerio Aprea, who will return later anyway – entrusted to Christian La Rosa, who is connected to the festival not only as an actor, but through much more commitment.. “My presence at the Ginesio Fest is due to a journey that I have followed for many years with Leonardo Lidi, as we have known each other for some time, we are university mates and we graduated together at the Teatro Stabile in Turin. It seems natural to us to experiment in a different environment, so here I take care of all aspects of the public, from meetings with artists to welcome companies, until the launch and the final award ceremony” .
In this regard, we remind you that Ginesio Fest is not only made up of the actual festival, but also of The San Ginesio Award “All’Arte dell’Attore”, conceived and promoted by the artist Remo Girone, President of the jury made up of Rodolfo di Giammarco, Lucia Mascino, Francesca Merloni and Giampiero Solari. This year they are the results the winners are actress Vanessa Scalera and actor Giuseppe Battiston, for whom the final evening is dedicated on August 25th, in Piazza Alberico Gentili.
Therefore, it is said that he opened the Ginesio Fest Christian La Rosa with monologue For no apparent reason, which tells the story – starting from the book The murder of Dr. A. by Sergio Anelli – del Dr. Amedeo Damiano, victim of the mafia about forty years ago in the village of Saluzzo and almost forgotten. “I like to make sure that even one more person understands this story – explains the Christian by choosing to tell the story of the tragedy – Memory is fundamental because we tend to always fall into the same traps and mistakes; we must not forget that some things have happened and will happen again, even if they have gone unknown and are not part of the great History, who have crossed paths many times. The number of stories, whether more or less related to the media, is identical, remaining outside of politics but always living on the level of facts, people, population and society”.
The next day, the baton was presented to the famous actor, Paolo Nanithan in your work Little miracles take on stage a solitary character, a designer who seems to have killed himself in his small life forever, yet somehow manages to get out of it through creativity, meets love and leads to a happy life, with a happy epilogue . It’s about a show that brings out all of Nani’s talents: acting, clowning, drawing, visual and artistic, with background music that has been carefully selected as an integral part of the story. The dramaturgy is by Gitta Malling, while the direction is by Frede Gulbrandsen.
Only behavior – as we can see from both shows – is the theme chosen by the Artistic Director Leonardo Lidi for this fifth edition, presented in the most different versions.. “The research to choose monologues, or more generally acts, to include in the Ginesio Fest was long and difficult, so defining a specific topic helped me to follow a path and outline a process – Director Lidi said – Solitude interests me because I believe that with knowledge and today’s noise this peculiarity ofillusion of companionshipIt’s a deep topic that we don’t talk about head on. So ignorance is a social phenomenon, but at the same time it is also a necessary condition to start a creative process.because an actor or director needs solitude to be able to create. Furthermore, in the new millennium, for many reasons, psychology has become a real theater supporter, although as a director I try to bring as many people as possible. I believe, however, that summer festivals serve to create question marks and open reflections, so what better subject than solitude, in its many aspects from childhood to maturity?”.
The third evening of the Ginesio Fest, Tuesday 20 August, saw Valentina Picello perform as well Anna CappelliA play that, precisely, focuses on the role of women over timeindependence, prospects of the future, loneliness, lack of means and wealth; all said as well biting and absurd humorwhich leads the viewer into the labyrinths of the mind of an unusual character full of contradictions. August 21st is the turn of I would like something by and with Tindaro Granata, with Mina’s wonderful songsmaking a leap into the musical as well as the theatrical field. The work was inspired by a meeting with the imprisoned actors of the Piccolo Shakespeare theater in the prison of Messina, as part of the project.
