FOUR it’s a solo and a monologue using theatre and dance languages.
Love, Hate, Revenge and Forgiveness are the four scenes: more than a deed story, the piece is a confession of feelings which reveals what women cannot tell but that they wish someone will understand one day.

In a big office in Milan the writer Fortunato Zinni is about to finish his book based on the event which radically changed his life and Italian history: the Piazza Fontana massacre. During the writing of the book flashes from his past come to mind: the time when, by a miracle, he escaped the bomb explosion at the National Bank of Agriculture; key moments of the endless trials which ensued; his unexpected career from bank clerk to the National Secretary of Fisac Cgil; his meetings with politicians, lawyers, bankers, journalists and magistrates. Forty years haunted by a mission: to discover the truth about what happened at Piazza Fontana, an affair still veiled in state secrecy.

Five acts comedy: a game of theatre in the theatre. The famous stage director Massimo Re falls in love with Bianca, a young actress, just one month before the debut of his new play entitled “School of seduction". Massimo chooses Bianca as the protagonist, even though the role has already been assigned to another actress. It's the spark of a neverending chain of events which overwhelms the whole cast and the production: a funny seesaw between truth and lies, sense and sensibility, with the complicity of the eternal sex fight.

Kostja (Trčpliov) the protagonist, is an aspiring playwright, fascinated by his mother Irina (Arkŕdina) the great actress. He is deeply in love with young Nina, aspiring actress, and brooding on revenge for Trigorin, who is stealing him both love and fame. A love drama playing at different levels and with different kinds of feelings: from Polina’s jealousy for Dorn, to Mascia’s frustrated love for Kostja, that makes her marry Medvedenko. The lovers chase each other: Mascia runs after Kostja, Arkadina shows Trigorin as a trophy, Nina runs after Trigorin, even when he turns to be the killer of her “inner seagull”. All the protagonists are running after the success: Trigorin has it and becomes a slave to it; Irina knew it once but she’s loosing it; Kostja and Nina are desperately looking for it, and their relationship will end up in a mortal competition.

On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of German philosopher F.W. Nietzsche's death (1900 –2000), Nuova Scena Antica carries out the project Prelude, life and works of F.W. Nietzsche.

This project is one of the events proposed by the Milan Town Council – Department of Culture and Museums – and it was realized in collaboration with Provincia di Milano, Goethe Institut Mailand, Vale Communication and Teatro Greco.
The trilogy is made up of three theatre works and a chamber music concert: episodes and contents of the German philosopher’s life find an expression through different languages (dance, music, drama, lighting design).

The concert is made up of a selection of lieder for piano, four hands piano, violin and piano, all composed by Nietzsche between 1854 ad 1878. “Maybe there was no philosopher so deeply musician as I am” this quote by Nietzsche explains the absolutely strong connection between his work and music. The audience is guided though an unknown door, to an unexpected universe made of sounds and visions.

In fall 1890, at the Psychiatric University Institute in Jena, two young and promising psychiatrists are asked to write a report on a quite strange clinical case: it’s the case of Professor N., former teacher of classical philology, author of many unpublished works, who got caught by a strange kind of insanity during a stay in Turin.

The piece is centered on Cosima Wagner, Richard Wagner’s wife, nicknamed Arianna by Nietzsche. What does Cosima have to do with the unlucky mythological Arianna?
A cross - section of the life in the late Romanticism age, all led by that absolute feeling typical of the romantic artists.

A selection of texts by the ancient Greeks, among Nietzsche’s most beloved ones. Organized on the four seasons’ alternation, with their colours and audio visual suggestions, the poets’ immortal voices live to speak about what links man to gods: life. In the cyclical dance, spring’s short – lived beauty and the summer’s insolent happiness run through, giving space to the melancholy of fall and cold winter’s eternal silence.
