Two protagonists with characteristic noses come together in the reinterpretation of the director and actor Arturo Cirillo who mixes the famous "Cyrano de Bergerac" by Edmond Rostand with Collodi's Pinocchio in a story made of lies for love that defies time and logic.
Arturo Cirillo 's Cyrano arrives on the island, playing the role of the skilled swordsman and refined poet, alongside Rosario Giglio , Francesco Petruzzelli , Irene Ciani , Giulia Trippetta and Giacomo Vigentini. Three events under the aegis of CeDac Sardegna for the season of La Grande Prosa : scheduled from Wednesday 20th to Sunday 24th March at the Teatro Massimo in Cagliari, while on Tuesday 26th March (always at 9pm) the show will be staged at the Teatro Comunale of Sassari.
An original reinterpretation of “Cyrano de Bergerac” with adaptation and direction by Arturo Cirillo, scenography by Dario Gessati , costumes by Gianluca Falaschi (Premio Le Maschere del Teatro 2023) and lighting design by Paolo Manti , and with original music and reworkings by Federico Odling , for the co-production Marche Teatro, Teatro di Napoli / Teatro Nazionale, Teatro Nazionale di Genova, Emilia Romagna Teatro / ERT Teatro Nazionale.
In a metatheatrical game, the story of the poet in love is intertwined with the tale of Pinocchio, in Carmelo Bene's imaginative version, with references to the world of variety shows and a soundtrack that ranges from songs by Domenico Modugno and Edith Piaf to the music of Fiorenzo Carpi .
