Description
Automatically translated from Italian.
Abracadabra is a magic show that tackles profound and delicate themes through the language of theater. On the stage of the Teatro Comunale, Francesco Scimemi, a professional magician, uses the art of magic to explore pain, illness, and grief. The show creates a symbolic bridge between the visible and the invisible, transforming magic tricks into a ritual that allows us to touch the unspeakable. With performances that blend the tragic, the grotesque, and the poetic, the show asks how it is possible to process pain and whether the dead can still speak to us, telling what words alone cannot express.
Original text in Italian
Abracadabra è uno spettacolo di magia che affronta temi profondi e delicati attraverso il linguaggio del teatro. Sul palco del Teatro Comunale, Francesco Scimemi, prestigiatore professionista, usa l'arte della magia per esplorare il dolore, la malattia e il lutto. Lo spettacolo crea un ponte simbolico tra il visibile e l'invisibile, trasformando i giochi di prestigio in un rito che permette di toccare l'indicibile. Con interpretazioni che mescolano il tragico, il grottesco e il poetico, lo spettacolo si domanda come sia possibile elaborare il dolore e se i morti possano ancora parlarci, raccontando quello che le sole parole non riescono a dire.
