Literature show, live music and dance based on the novel "invisible cities" by i. Calvino

Invisible, prose, live music and dance, is conceived and realized by Isaac Tognon and Cristina Pulga, within the Association's summer programming Artemusica culture and will be represented in the beautiful piazza D'Armi di Forte Interrupted.

The show starts from Italo Calvino's text of 1972 to tell a city United by blurred boundaries, where the places described by the merchant Marco Polo to the Mongol emperor could be the products of imagination, but also a song aimed at modern cities, with their ghosts and unresolved issues, with their charm and their fears.
Marco Polo, the wise traveler and at the same time frivolous and visionary, says cities and places away from the eyes and ears of the Gran Kan. As a good merchant, must first find a common language with his interlocutor, a common ground in order to fulfil its task of narrator and try to place each and place each image in its memory in a canvas the size too large. His attempt is to return a precise design to a sovereign attentive and curious about people and places, a powerless emperor who seeks a foreigner entry words and sounds that captures the true essence of his boundless realm.

Invisible follows the tales of traveller Marco Polo and his conversations with the Emperor along three streets that alternate and intersect: the word, dance and music. Each of them contributes to recreate the sense of story, looking for a look complex but at the same time immediate on the cities.

The strong Interrupted, chosen as stage elective, not only offers a suggestive and exciting, but also a point of view that part away from his position. First, the parade driving the view towards a narrative that remains suspended, that speaks of men and places, but always ready to flee upwards, to become dream or mirror of reality; Secondly, the position that occupies the Fort against the below Valley of Asiago, plus the detachment from the town, allows a look at the city as a sort of focus that starts from far away, ready to approach the subject with an easy downhill.

The show is directed by Isaac Tognon, also involved as an actor alongside Diego De Francis. Live music is entrusted to the pianist Francesco Pulga, while the dancers are soloists Giorgio Merlin and Shareef B "Etra dance events" of Montecchio Maggiore. Group dances are instead entrusted to network NOLIMITA dancers-C-TIONS, and choreographed by Joanna Garzotto, Michela Negro, Selenia Malan, and artistic assistance of Cristina Pulga.
