Instead, it will be the Partisan resistance the dramaturgical fulcrum of the show which Mario Mascitelli, author, director and leading actor, will bring to the stage of the Osoppo Theater over the weekend of 21 22 and April at 20.30 pm, on the eve of the celebrations for the anniversary of the Liberation. "R-esistenza", this is the title, tells, starting from historical sources and official documents, the heroic actions of men and women who fought "a war in the bush" without wearing any uniform, often giving their lives for a just cause , animated by the desire to defend their land and their families and contributing decisively to the liberation of our country. The show is produced in collaboration with ANPI (National Association of Partisans of Italy) and with the Historical Institute of the Resistance and the Contemporary Age.
