Alessandra Faiella, Chiara Piazza
Age pride
What will the third and fourth acts of our human lives be like? The extraordinary Alessandra Faiella will enchant the festival audience exploring this question with provocative candor and delightful irony. In a moving and unflinching defense of old age, she argues that the new era of aging is not a condemnation but a challenge, a fulfillment, an uncharted territory to explore and a place to discover an unexpected inner freedom. Accompanied by the visual artistry of Cinzia Leone and the cello of Chiara Piazza, Age Pride – based on Lidia Ravera's novel, directed by Emanuela Giordano, and produced by Teatro Franco Parenti – offers a fresh perspective, delving into themes like family, time and future.
