Following their previous participation in the Festival with The End and Lolita, this year Babilonia Teatri presents its latest work David è Morto. This pièce examines the theme of mourning which the Verona-based troupe approaches with its customary masterful irreverence. «David è morto – in the words of Valeria Raimondi and Enrico Castellani – is the tale of five talking dead. It tells the story of their lives, and of their deaths. He who talks about his own death has nothing to lose, nor anything to hide. Thus, the protagonists of our story are direct, and pitiless, rather like werewolves in search of prey, or hunting for the significance of what has been lost. David è morto is an impalpable story: a pretext to construct a kaleidoscope of tics, a glossary of quirks, a carnival of contemporary folly. The result is a portrait of the idiosyncratic world in which we live, where what is important to depicting those human typologies and characters that embody the discomfort and malaise of contemporary society. David è morto is a sung epitaph».
