The Centre for Study and Documentary Research into European Theatre and Opera presents the latest play from the Gran Teatrino La Fede delle Femmine, included in the series L’après midi d’un Poète,
this year devoted to the Guido Gozzano. Based on a twofold approach, fi lm and drama, Th e Chrysalises’ Friend is an introduction in ten scenes to Gozzano’s world and especially his brief love aff airs.
After exploring the sadomasochistic relationship with the poetess Amalia Guglielminetti, the play focuses on the poet’s entomological passion for butterfl ies and small insects in the Villa Il Meleto, a refuge of rest and quiet during his inexorable, slow fatal illness, and the illusion of salvation on his long Indian journey.
The puppets are moved by Margherita Beato, Margot Galante Garrone, Luisa Garlato and
Paola Pilla to the accompaniment of music by Muzio Clementi, Giuseppe Giordani (Il Giordanello),
Georg Friedrich Handel, György Sándor Ligeti, Jean-Claude Risset, Karlheinz
Stockhausen, Gabriel Pierné and Nicola Vaccaj, and songs by Margot Galante Garrone.
Th is conference is part of the “Fortuny Atlas”, a project promoted by the University of Padua with the Fondazione Giorgio Cini Study Centre for Documentary Research into European Th eatre and Opera, Ca’
Foscari University, Venice, the Fortuny Museum – Fondazione Musei Civici, Venice. The conference will discuss the place of theatre in the career of the multifaceted artist Mariano Fortuny. The sub-themes
include his relations with the leading masters of stage design in the early 20th century, such as Adolphe Appia or Max Reinhardt, his contacts with the world of dance ranging from Isadora Duncan to Ruth Saint Denis and Loie Fuller and his creations and experiments with stagecraft and lighting.
The speakers include Cristina Grazioli, Elena Randi, Carlo Alberto Minici Zotti, Paola Degli
Esposti, Guido Bartorelli, Giuseppina Dal Canton and Marzia Maino from the University of
Padua; Daniela Ferretti, Claudio Franzini and Cristina da Roit from the Fortuny Museum;

The Centre for Study and Documentary Research into European Theatre and Opera is hosting a training course for teachers and educators in the field of theatre. Taught by the great Russian master Anatolij Vasiliev, the course will be attended by trainee pedagogues from all over the world. Stage pedagogy is an opportunity for meeting and studying with drama teachers and educators: a time and a place available to explore the most important and undervalued of the arts – art education. The hopes of finding new talent and renewing languages depend on this “mother of all arts” as far as the transmission of knowledge and experience is concerned. By means of the etjud method, Anatolij Vasiliev builds up a powerful experience of personal and artistic relations.
The project has been organised by the Accademia Teatrale Veneta and the Fondazione di Venezia
with the Fondazione Giorgio Cini and the collaboration of the Teatro Scuola Paolo Grassi, Milan.

teatromelodramma@cini.itThe idea of creating a room dedicated to the actressstemmed from the desire to make the Eleonora DuseArchive in the Giorgio Cini Foundation a place open to the public, to be visited and explored.
The valuable collection of material kept in the Study Centrefor Documentary Research into European Drama and Opera is a very rich resource for studying the life and art of the fascinating diva who came to Venice in search of acongenial environment and a house, where she then lived for many years.
This new space has been designed to exhibit some of the documents in the rich archive, such as autograph items, including letters, scripts, accounts documents and company registers, as well as original photographs, personal items, clothes and part of her furniture. In addition to the small permanent exhibition intended to recreate a corner of Eleonora Duse’s house, the extraordinary rich documents will make it possible to present and explore various themes related to her art or individual periods in her life. Such themes will also form the guidelines for temporary exhibitions.
The room has been designed to make more use of the invaluable Duse Archive in the Study Centre for Documentary Research into European Theatre and Opera in the Giorgio Cini Foundation.

Consisting of around 5,000 volumes, this library collection put together
by one of the great figures in Italian theatre in the second half of

playwright and translator.

Salone degli Arazzi
A theatrical sonic jurney inspired by and dedicated to the city of Venice and its lagoon. The performance takes the audience through a number of sonic and musical scenarios, as if it was wandering through an imaginary Venice. Along the way one might catch elements of the Venetian tradition and culture, past and present, glimpses of Comedia dell’Arte and references to Luigi Nono abd the Venetian ‘spatial’music of the XVI and XVII centuries.
Venusia combines music and theatre into a single expresssive form, using the actors’ movements to generate and control paramenters of sound including pitch, volume, spatial position and motion in a 3D surround sound setup. The mapping technology, developed by Andrea Santini in collaboration with Dave Hunt and Middlesex University, London, allows to map phisical gesture and translate it into ‘sound gestures’, capable of creating a spectacular and immersive sound dramaturgy.
