NEEDLE IN THE DARK: VISIONS OF HELLEN KELLER
Audiotheater from la Luna nel Pozzo
direction Robert McNeer
text Robert McNeer and Alessandro Lucci
audio design Gianluigi Strafella
song Elaisa Sardella and Nico Tedesco
with the voices of Natascia Fogu and others
This production, in the Italian language, presents the story of Helen Keller, a complex genius, whose life stretched from the American Gilded Age to the conflict in Vietnam.
One of the most beloved and misunderstood figures in XXth century America, she expressed in poetic and limpid prose her amazing capacity to perceive the world, bereft of vision and hearing.
She also struggled to make her voice heard in denouncing the injustice which surrounded her, frustrated by society’s deafness and blindness to vital social issues.
To tell her remarkable story, we have invented a new theatrical vocabulary: “AudioTheater”, in which the audience enters Helen Keller’s world aurally, attended to by guardian angels.

THE ISLAND
la Luna nel Pozzo
by and with: Pia Wachter, Daria Paoletta, Mirko Lodedo
Produced by La Luna nel Pozzo in collaboration with Burambò and Casarmonica
In this show we decided to take on an uncomfortable theme of our times: garbage is suffocating our land, our air, our water… Sea, sky and plastic are the protagonists in a modern narrative which seems invented, and yet is a true story.
This is the story of the “Great Pacific Garbage Patch”, a huge island made of trash, floating in the Pacific Ocean. The voice of a little girl narrates the voyage of a plastic bag, pushed by the wind to this great plastic island, where it encounters objects which take on life, with the aid of two actrice-pupeteers and a musician.
Everything in this show– the characters, landscapes and musical instruments– is composed of the objects which fill our beaches, our trash bags, our daily lives: bottle tops, plastic bottles, bins and cartons… in this show, the child-spectator becomes an active explorer, discovering a strange island and the creatures which inhabit it in a wave of emotions: amusement, wonder and fear all contribute to give life to the images.
This is a voyage made of transformations, sounds, lights, colors and fantasy, much fantasy…

REDMOON FEST
La Luna nel Pozzo
When was the last time you laughed so hard your ribs hurt? In our clown workshops, that happens often.
This year, we want to share this experience with our audience. On stage you’ll find this year’s volunteers, but if you want, you’ll tread the boards yourself.
Or if you want, you can sit back and have a laugh. Careful of your ribs…..
