The true story of Gelsomino and Bedelia\u201d<\/strong> A cheerful and entertaining show, created with large puppets and constantly changing scenery, which tells the story of an ogre who, at sunset, magically transforms into a beautiful maiden.<\/p>\n

Bedelia, that is her name, lives in the daily conflict of being both loved and hated by both orcs and men.<\/p>\n

It's a real problem because he always has to hide, both day and night, depending on where he is. Worse than being an orca, or a girl, is not really being either one.
\nWho could ever love her knowing about this secret transformation?<\/p>\n

\u201cLet's tell this story,\" he explains. Daniele Debernardi<\/strong> \u2013 to address the issue of diversity among peoples and races in a sober but light-hearted way. Not knowing about other cultures\u201d customs leads to fear of others. The ogres in our story are identical to human beings, only differently ugly. It is fear that can stop the desire to learn, and this applies to each and every one of us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The August 3<\/strong>, Daniele Debernardi will present a show about beauty: \u201cThe prince of swine<\/strong>\u201dThe techniques used will be those of animated puppet theater, combined with shadows and silhouettes. The August 10<\/strong>, it will be the turn of the story, with the help of large puppets, of the fairy tale \u201cThe three little pigs<\/strong>\u201d in a fantastic setting where houses, trees and the pigsty will change shape before the eyes of the audience in a magical arrangement of environments.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Steadfast Tin Soldier\u201d <\/strong>staged on August 24<\/strong>, will offer a dreamlike and imaginative reinterpretation of the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen<\/strong>, in which, among enormous objects, the actor-narrator will become the spirit of the toys and give them voice and life.<\/p>\n

The last event with the Teatrino dell'Erba Matta will be on August 31 with another fairy tale.\u201cPuss in Boots\u201d<\/strong>. In the adaptation of Daniele Debernardi<\/strong>, which will use animated figure theater techniques performed by an actor, with characters jumping out of small theaters whose sets are based on Van Gogh's paintings.<\/p>\n
