Week of Italian Cuisine in the World – 9th Edition
STORIES OF EGGS AND FLOUR / Storie di uova e di farina
A one-woman show by Gaia Mencagli.
She travels in time and the space around her transforms. Between handfuls of flour, Gaia’s grandmother Rosa relives some of the most significant moments of her life, accompanied by music, objects, and people from that time. She goes through the times of the Second World War and those of a child in the house of rich people. A moment later she is a mature woman in the countryside, then a young lover, and finally, she becomes the grandmother, Nonna Rosa. All this while making fettuccine.
All performances are in English.
