In collaboration with the Department of Philosophy and the Cultural Heritage at Ca\u2019 Foscari University, Venice and Accademia Teatrale Veneta, the Centre for Studies on Theatre has promoted a staged reading of an early
\nplay by Luigi Squarzina, Tre quarti di luna (\u201cThree-quarters Moon\u201d) written in 1949. Before he died the playwright presented his library to the Fondazione Cini, which wishes to commemorate
\nhim with initiatives like this staged reading.
\nFirst performed by Vittorio Gassman, Anna Proclemer and Luca Ronconi, the play was staged at the Teatro Valle, Rome in 1953. Today it is reinterpreted by second-year students on an acting
\ncourse at the Accademia Teatrale Veneta, directed by the actress Paola Bigatto.
\nThe action takes place in the Fascist period and develops around the theme of the masterpupil, professor-student relationship, to the background of the Gentile educational reform.
\nThe school environment is extended to become a mirror of life and history: \u201cthe school has the healthy ferocity of life… anyone who really educates is killed or kills\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":33145,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"cini_tax_event_categories":[1465],"cini_tax_institutes":[20],"cini_tax_event_locations":[1567],"class_list":["post-34141","cini_events","type-cini_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cini_tax_event_categories-meetings","cini_tax_institutes-theatre-and-opera","cini_tax_event_locations-cfz-cultural-flow-zone-2"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
