Bergamo\u2019s Teatro Tascabile is an avant-garde company of international fame. For the Festival audience in Chile it performed a new take on the Romeo and Juliet story, \u201cAmor mai non s’addorme: Storie di Montecchi e Capuleti\u201d. The company gave 5 performances in Santiago\u2019s city-centre squares and in other open-air venues on the outskirts of the capital. It also performed in Antofagasta and Iquique. <\/P>

Invited to take part in the \u201cSpecial Events\u201d section, the Tascabile actors also gave a master class on Indian theatre and dance, an area the company is currently researching. On 16 January they took part in an event in the Italian Cultural Institute in the presence of Ambassador Vincenzo Palladino. The company gave a short performance illustrating \u201cInterculturalism and the marriage of theatre and dance\u201d, an area they have been working on since 1978. <\/P>

The Soc\u00ecetas Raffaello Sanzio company presented Romeo Castellucci\u2019s \u201cPersona\u201d, a reproduction of an ancient Greek mask of Silenus. This reworking of the mask combines archetypal image and modern technology, an innovative combination for which Castellucci and the Soc\u00ecetas Raffaello Sanzio have won worldwide renown. The work, which was displayed at the Gabriela Mistral Cultural Centre in Santiago, was one of the most admired pieces by both fellow artists and the general public.<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bergamo\u2019s \u201cTascabile\u201d and Cesena\u2019s \u201cRaffaello Sanzio\u201d theatre companies represented Italy at the 19th \u201cSantiago a Mil\u201d International Theatre, Music and Dance Festival.
