Giuseppe Cederna with Pietro Laureano and Giuseppe Baresi - One summer’s evening three travellers

listen to the audio file

How a journey originates, different ways of observing distant places and peoples, how to share emotions, paradoxes, the unexpected, diversions from the route, following something only vaguely defined that day by day turns into curiosity, a longing, a search. A first-time performance from an unlikely group of travellers: an actor-writer, an architect and a director. Travels taken together turn to off-beat narrative for the apprentice explorer.
