Don Quixote And The Moon

by Stefano Cavallini, Patrizia Ascione

Overview

This short story is taken from the script of the homonymous show, for large stick marionettes and puppets on black by Habanera Teatro, produced in 2009, of which also shows several pictures.
The dialogues have remained virtually unchanged and the descriptive part is trying to return the experience of the show: visual, with scenes, characters, movements and lights; hearing, with sounds, noises and voices.
Scenes, costumes and figures, sculpted in foam, are by Patrizia Ascione
Texts, adaptation and direction of the show are by Stefano Cavallini
The very brief introductions to some musical scenes (only for the audiobook), which in Spanish announce what will happen, are taken from Don Quijote de la Mancha by Jordi Savall, performed with the Capella Reial de Catalunya, with original instruments; music suggested to me some time ago by the friend Carlo de Incontrera.
Finally our Dulcinea sing the "Cuccurucù" from the film The Armata Brancaleone directed by Mario Monicelli, as tasty digression.

The professional relationship between Patrizia Ascione and Stefano Cavallini born spontaneous, reach gradually after the decision to live together. And the roles in the company slipped into their previous experience: Patrizia after 15 years as a radio host, organizer of shows, a costume designer, finds the natural gift of the sculpture that applies to the foam, which builds all his figures; Stefano after two decades of journalistic criticism musical, various literary experiences, then scriptwriter, screenwriter, playwright and organizer of shows, follows Patrizia into the adventure of the puppet theater, writing and directing all Habanera Theatre shows.
On this trip we have been helped to grow by Jacques Lecoq, the Living Theatre, Peter Schumann, Giuliano Montaldo, Carlo De Incontrera, Stephen Mottram and Damiano Privitera.
Sounds, noises, music, movement, dark, lights, and finally, but only at the end, the text: a theater mutimediale par excellence, able to excite and leave an indelible mark in the new generations.
Because the theater must has a future.
