Stuporosa

Francesco Marilungo / Körper (IT)

In residence from 26 to 30 June
Return 30th June 19.45

Teatro Biblioteca Quarticciolo

Project realized in collaboration with Short Theatre

Stuporosa takes as reference the study “Death and ritual mourning” by Ernesto De Martino to develop a choreographic study on the so called ‘lament without soul’ on the figure of the mourner. The title of the project is a quotation of De Martino: stuporosa is the groggy stupour, that state of catatonia that can manifest itself in the individual attempt to overcome the mourning for the loss of a loved one. A reflection on the act of crying, on the state of mourning and on the importance of a funeral ritual - religious or secular - to give meaning to death.
