Aloud with Gianni Rodari
“When our performing activity finds its way into a wider social dynamic, we are happy. In this way the contribution of art comes out of the niches” answers the managing director Gigi Cristoforetti on Gazzetta di Reggio.
On the occasion of Gianni Rodari’s 100th birthday we accepted the invitation Coop Alleanza 3.0 – Ad alta voce (Aloud) to participate in the event “Voci per un non compleanno. Ad alta voce con Gianni Rodari” / “Voices for a non-birthday. Aloud with Gianni Rodari”.
The event, dedicated to the city of Reggio Emilia and entitled “Il coraggio di rimanere bambini. Coltivare la fantasia per non smettere di sognare” / “The courage to remain children. Cultivating the imagination so as not to stop dreaming“, aired on 23 October 2020 via streaming, on the adaltavoce.it website and on the Facebook Ad Alta Voce page. It was directed by Riccardo Marchesini, with journalist Luca Bottura in dialogue with writer Luigi Garlando.
Following, from the Sala Tricolore of the Municipality of Reggio Emilia, Enrico Salimbeni reads texts by Loris Malaguzzi and Gianni Rodari.
From 26’53” the duet from ‘La stella nascosta‘ by Saul Daniele Ardillo with the dancers Fabrizio Di Franco and Matilde Gherardi at Centro Internazionale Loris Malaguzzi.
La stella nascosta, our creation in 2019, was born together with children, in coproduction with Accademia Perduta | Romagna Teatri, in partnership with Reggio Children and Nidi e Scuole d’Infanzia di Reggio Emilia.
The poetry with the dance is A un bambino pittore by Gianni Rodari:
Appeso a una parete
ho visto il tuo disegnino:
su un foglio grande grande
c’era un uomo in un angolino.Un uomo piccolo, piccolo,
forse anche
un po’ spaventato
da quel deserto bianco
in cui era capitato,e se ne stava in disparte
non osando farsi avanti
come un povero nano
nel paese dei giganti.Tu l’avevi colorato
con vera passione:
ricordo il suo magnifico
cappello arancione.Ma la prossima volta,
ti prego di cuore,
disegna un uomo più grande,
amico pittore.Perché quell’uomo sei tu,
tu in persona, ed io voglio
che tu conquisti il mondo:
prendi, intanto
tutto il foglio!Disegna figure
grandi grandi,
forti, senza paura,
sempre pronte a partire
per una bella avventura.
