Theatrical walk, on the trail of “Il ladro di ragazze”

 

There are five appointments with a theatrical experience “in motion”, in which participants will be able to discover the places with a seventeenth-century flavour that characterise the Mendrisiotto environment described in the novel “Il ladro di ragazze”, by Carlo Silini, and meet some of the characters narrated in the book who lived in that era and in those places. The setting is dark and the story grim and presents a Mendrisiotto very different from what it is today.

The programme includes about ten stops, where the actors will present their performances, and ends with a wine tasting at the Valsangiacomo Winery.

Language
