About the event

Synopsis

We are at the beginning of a rehearsal; the actors are arriving, and shortly after, the director. The actress who is always late, of course, arrives late. The play they are preparing to rehearse is, curiously, by Luigi Pirandello: “The Rules of the Game,” a comedy about a love triangle. The actors stoically endure the director’s bad mood; the director, for his part, cannot stand almost anyone, not even Pirandello, and is fussy with everything and everyone. Until the rehearsal is interrupted by a family of six individuals who claim to have been born as characters and put forward an impossible demand: that someone perform their drama. In this way, comedy mixes with tragedy, fantasy with reality, and characters with actors.
