Bari theater season 2023/24, at the Piccinni Theater “The alphabet of emotions” by Stefano Massini.

As part of the theater season of the Municipality of Bari - Department of Cultures in collaboration with the Teatro Pubblico Pugliese, Stefano Massini arrives at the Piccinni Theater with “The alphabet of emotions”, non-subscription show.

We are what we feel. And telling ourselves to others means telling our emotions. But how to do it, in a moment that seems to confuse everything with everything, losing the boundaries between states of mind? We are told that we are emotional illiterates, and Stefano Massini - the writer so loved for his stories on TV on Thursday evenings on "Piazzapulita" - starts from here for a very profound and ironic journey at the same time into the labyrinth of our feelings and feelings. .

In an imaginary alphabet in which each letter corresponds to an emotion (P for Fear, F for Happiness, M for Melancholy...), Massini drags the public into a succession of irresistible stories and examples, with the sole aim of calling for name what moves us from within. Faces, portraits, names, situations flow. What is on stage is the strength and fragility of the human being, painted with the inspiration and fun of a passionate storyteller, defined by Repubblica as "the most popular storyteller of the moment".

“We have scheduled Stefano Massini's show on Valentine's Day – comments Culture Councilor Ines Pierucci – at the theater we celebrate love that has no boundaries every time, taking care of the public's emotions through contents that do not distract from due respect to every expression of the human soul. The theater is the place where one can approach knowledge in the desire to recognize oneself, to observe reality from an alternative point of view, with a double gaze, clear and ferocious on things, like that of Alda Merini, who found that energy in love revolutionary that annihilates the shadows and collapses the distances between human beings, or of our Michele Campione, with his invitation to "love them, words, unspeakable discoveries, oceans of curiosity and very sweet sensations".
