Under the direction of Italian theatre director and pedagogue Gianluca Barbadori, we present “Stories, Strange Stories” (“Storie, strane storie”) an experimental performance aimed at bringing people together through theatre. After a 5-week intensive theatre course, our students and non-professional actors will bring to the stage the world of famous Italian writer and dramatist Dino Buzzati. “Stories, Strange Stories” guides the audience through mysterious, metaphorical, eccentric and intriguing narratives that reflect on the nature of being human and living in our contemporary society.
