Iraqi Bodies hosts Italian Teatro del Lemming, 6-8 October 2023 at Konstepidemin
“THE SPECTATOR’S THEATRE” is the poetics originated and developed by Italian Teatro del Lemming based in Rovigo over the past 35 years. Within this framework they question the relation between actor and spectator.
During the last sixteen years their research has focused on myth. Through the myth, the actors build bridges between them and the spectators, crossing all conventional barriers and borders and thereby create a real human relation. In Gothenburg the company will perform Edipo–an adaptation of Sophocle’s ancient tragedy for one spectator at a time at Konstepedemin Hus 8. On Sunday 8/10 there will also be a public talk with the company’s actors at ADAS Teater.
“Edipo is a unique occasion to experiment with new way of playing and a new idea of Theatre as such. Edipo subverts conventions, crumbles convictions, effects a unique experience. Who is the spectator and who is the actor? Am I in a real space or in an imagination? Am I the maker of my destiny or is it destiny that directs my actions? During the performance these questions defy rational logic in favour of emotional tension. The one who lives Edipo actually feels that only in one’s solitude can we discovr our own multitude.” – Director Massimo Munaro
Director & Music: Massimo Munaro
Dramaturgical assistance: Roberto Domeneghetti
Actors: Marina Carluccio, Diana Ferrantini, Silvia Massicci, Elisa Rocco, Alessio Papa
