L'altra metà del cielo

Teatro alla Scala production

From 6 to 13 September 2013

Running Time: 1 hour 08 minutes intermissions included

Notes on the performancesOpen: Martha Clarke and Vasco Rossi: two distant worlds have collided and taken a gamble. The woman takes centre stage. The women that Vasco has sung about in his long career are transformed into the drama, libretto and “soundtrack” of the performance.

A musical arrangement created specifically, featuring a symphonic, classical interpretation. Albachiara, Silvia and Susanna feature as three symbolic characters that experience adolescence, maturity, growth and abandonment. The seasons of life in a gallery of songs that sing a three-fold story.

Increasingly attracted by the theatrical aspects of dance, Martha Clarke has sought out the heart of the characters, of the dancers and the songs. With a poetic, essential and refined visual key, she has interpreted the feminine universe through movement, gestures, dance, and all the elements of the set.
