Each and every image of the ONE THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHT, a road, a dressed angel, a carpet, a disguised merchant, etc., gathers many others, in a mirroring game of metaphors, tricks and hints.<\/p>\n
Following this hint, Vincenzo Cerami tries his hand in the reading of one of the most fascinating and hard texts of world literature. An audacious experiment, conducted on the text of the most ancient manuscript, first published in Italian by Donzelli publishing house in 2006. Cerami\u2019s reading turned into a show, accompanied by Aidan Zammit\u2019s original music, Emita Frigato\u2019s scenography and Paolo Ferrari\u2019s lights. This gave birth to a unique event in Rome\u2019s Auditorium, exclusively shot by Vivo film for Rai 2 Palcoscenico.<\/p>\n
\u00abDestiny is the main character of this work. It makes the most unlikely and unexpected paths cross: the people move in the rich and variegated landscape of the stories, and goes in search of the most uncertain and amazing adventures. The absent presence of fate moves people, gives voice to their silence, furies and turmoil, passions and meanness. Everybody\u2019s life obey to God\u2019s cryptic and initiating will. God is a \u201cgenerous Lord, maker of mankind and of the world\u201d, but he is here the master of puppets of busy and swarming beings, portrayed as they create prodigies and they fight them, as they seduce and let themselves be seduced, as they plot in the chaos to get themselves pieces of life, between chaste and sighing loves, and violent alcove scenes.<\/p>\n
The universe of ARABIAN NIGHTS is a society represented in all its ranks, from its highest pyramid to the dirtiest slum. In the people a myriad of fetishes and pagan symbols, of jinn spirits survive, cancelled by Muslim\u2019s monotheism. Fears hover as spirits and magic boxes, which let the reader dream tales as a child, and cross the wonderland, by the borderline between the children\u2019s synchronism and the adult\u2019s diachronic timeline, between history and story\u00bb.<\/p>\n
