The choice of working from the story of
the famous puppet has led Kinkaleri to venture on a new creative process
directly connected to childhood.
In reference to the surprising ability of the tale to unfold through infinite traces and countless interpretations built in the narration, the performance creates a series of imaginary paths that meet by an unexpected logic; the suspension of the tale represents a fragile world where one can venture and be astonished, amazed and enchanted. The plot doesn't reproduce the coherent narrative progression of the fairytale, but collects its imaginary representations, organised around a simple scenery with a little yellow house at the centre of a synthetic lawn; the yellow house acts and hides from view, explodes and invades, amplifies and disseminates. It is the heart of the stage, so fragile and inaccessible, that shows one by one its objects and inhabitants. In a permanent enchantment the performance unfolds with the appearance of characters from Pinocchio, chosen among the reference figures that determine, in the escape of the puppet, the continual changes of the story: the Blue Fairy, charming and cruel, the father Mangiafuoco Geppetto, the miraculous Cat and Fox, and Lucignolo, the only boy who dreams of becoming a puppet. The absence of the rebellious and loving wood character refers to an
off-stage presence, to a child's outlook which evokes for an instant the
figure of the main character, who transports his experience in the outside
world. Only at the end do the field of miracles and the magic yellow house
welcome the presence of Pinocchio as a missing figure, drawn on the lawn
and evoked through the transformation of the house that amplifies its
deformity, relinquishing once and for all the human evolution of a small
piece of wood. |
