The stage is set with a journalist, an ensemble and a throng of voices and faces: Italians that bring
shames about their ever-recurrent tragedies, screaming words of hatred filled with emotions. It’s the
voice of indignation the media bring everyday to Italian homes: a force as well as a weakness arising
from pleas, illiterate tirades of extrovert tongues. From earthquakes to white deaths, from the problem
of waste to climate change: the voices of a world that reacts, rebels and pursues its desire for freedom.
How close are we to such voices? (Fabio Cifariello Ciardi)
