GINETTA MARIA FINO/GIUSEPPE MAINIERI
NON MI RICORDO (I don’t remember)
direction Corrado Nuzzo, Maria Di Biase
Ginetta goes back the fundamental steps of her life in couple,but she can’t find any confirms in her partner: he can’t remember his past, and they face the oblivion with an ironic cheerfulness. Evocative audio–video precences rinforce the contrast/continuity between past and present, witnessing the importance of documents. The recollection of the night when the accident that caused the lack of memory occured is really intense. Pino’s letters sent to Ginetta during the military service are a precious document that gives evidence to who and how was Pino before the trauma that took his memory away. These are the words of a young Pino, who fought for a better world and loved his partner. During the deep coma, those words show Ginetta how to face this further test: “living doesn’t mean to dream and wish, living means to understand and struggle”, revealing the secret of the strength of their relationship.
In September 2006 Pino’s letters have arrived in the last ten positions in the Pieve Prize of Archivio Diaristico Nazionale” in Pieve Santo Stefano (AR) established by Saveria Tutino. After 11 years from the accident that made him disabled taking his memory away past re-emerge in Pieve, with all its human and historical meaning. “Non mi ricordo” was born in Pieve.

Duration: 1h10 and the time we will take to eat togheter the flat bread cooked during the show.
After touring in some of the most important theatres in both Italy and the rest of Europe, Teatro Delle Ariette makes a comeback on the scenes of the VolterraTeatro Festival.
The acting company will be perfoming its latest highly applauded play: Everything I know about wheat.
The audience will be the destinatary of a long moving letter about acting, meeting people at a cerimony and the act of kneading the dough in order to bake something as essential as bread. it’s a tale about a lifetime of harvesting and acting, living together and sharing a passion for art.
Paola Berselli and Stefano Pasquini tell their story to the audience asking them to bring along either a focaccia, a pizza or a homemade cake.
Few, simple elements create TUTTO QUELLO CHE SO DEL GRANO.
A letter. A flat bread. One man and one woman. THe country and the theatre.
Everything I know may be nothing. And the wheat?

We need to talk, to tell, since oratory is our heritage. We seem to try in the simple furious breathing (or writing) span of the individual to draw a savage indictment of the contemporary scene or to escape from it into a makebelieve region of swords and magnolias and mockingbirds which perhaps never existed anywhere

I should report that which I say I saw,
But know not how to do ’t.
As I did stand my watch upon the hill,
I looked toward Birnam, and anon methought
The wood began to move.
Let me endure your wrath, if ’t be not so.
Within this three mile may you see it coming;
I say, a moving grove.
