Description
Automatically translated from Italian.
Daphne runs away to find her own path, torn between love for another and love for herself. Taken from Ovid’s Metamorphoses, the performance written and performed by Ilaria Carlucci tells the story of a nymph born from mud on the bank of a river. Curious and free, Daphne explores the woods until Cupid crosses her path with that of Apollo. When the god falls in love with her, desire blinds him and the nymph’s world begins to change: she starts to run. A show that inaugurates the children’s theatre section of the Unica season, on stage at the Teatro Nasca in Lecce on 29 November at 6 pm.
Original text in Italian
Dafne scappa per trovare la propria strada, tra l'amore per l'altro e l'amore per sé. Tratto dalle Metamorfosi di Ovidio, lo spettacolo scritto e interpretato da Ilaria Carlucci racconta di una ninfa nata dal fango sulla riva di un fiume. Curiosa e libera, Dafne esplora il bosco fino a quando Cupido incrocia i suoi passi con quelli di Apollo. Quando il dio se ne innamora, il desiderio lo acceca e il mondo della ninfa inizia a trasformarsi: lei comincia a correre. Uno spettacolo che inaugura la sezione teatro per ragazzi della stagione Unica, in scena al Teatro Nasca di Lecce il 29 novembre alle ore 18.
