TITIZÉ - A VENETIAN DREAM

The new acrobatic show of Teatro Goldoni in Venice written and directed by Daniele Finzi Pasca combines the language of Commedia dell'Arte with fascinating scenic machines, inventing a new visual aesthetic, enriched by multidisciplinary performers in ethereal universes where wonder is sometimes naive, sometimes ingenious, other times surreal.

Reflections in the water, the diaphanousness of clouds when are low, the iconic masquerade game where we hide ourselves in order to reveal and unveil ourselves: three magical movements that magicians and shamans know and pass on.
There will be the night and its madness, the charlatans of clowns, objects that will levitate, acrobats that will fly, real and surreal rain and a continuous recreation of impossible balances. There will be traditional characters that will be multiplied, split, disassembled and rebuilt in a kaleidoscopic game. There will be Venice with her splendor, her atmosphere, her poetry and the mysteries that inhabit her.

“The clowning we practice has always been intimately linked to tradition and brings with it echoes of the language of the Commedia dell'Arte. We come from a theater of wonder and simplicity that over the years we have contaminated using increasingly fascinating scenic machines, inventing a visual aesthetic that is our own.
We build shows in which we immerse multidisciplinary performers in rarefied universes where wonder sometimes manifests itself in a naive, sometimes ingenious, other times surreal way”

DANIELE FINZI PASCA

Costruito nel 1622, il Teatro Carlo Goldoni è il più antico teatro di Venezia ad oggi esistente. Spettatore dei grandi eventi del passato si presenta ancora oggi come un simbolo della città, luogo di rappresentanza per i suoi cittadini e polo di attrazione per numerosi turisti.
Lo stesso Carlo Goldoni vi lavorò per quasi dieci anni, dal 1753 fino alla partenza per Parigi, scrivendo qui alcune delle sue opere più riuscite.
Dopo aver ospitato sulla scena attori del calibro di Eleonora Duse, nel corso del ‘900 l’edificio del teatro viene completamente rinnovato. Dalla riapertura nel 1979 ha conosciuto la direzione di uomini illustri, tra cui l’indimenticato Giorgio Gaber, e nel 1992 passa in gestione al Teatro Stabile del Veneto. Da più di venticinque anni offriamo al pubblico veneziano ed internazionale un cartellone e numerose attività pensate su misura della città, dei suoi abitanti e molti visitatori.
