In anticipation of the 2013 Fringe Festival's centerpiece show On the Concept of the Face Regarding the Son of God, FringeArts is presenting a film screening of Socìetas Raffaello Sanzio's past works at the International House. Film excerpts from the performances of Tragedia Endogonidia and La Divina Commedia - Inferno, Purgatorio e Paradiso will be followed by a post-show discussion with Nick Stuccio about influential director Romeo Castellucci's approach.
About Romeo Castellucci:
Since cofounding Socìetas Raffaello Sanzio, Castellucci has participated in the creation of numerous productions as writer, producer, and set, light, sound, and costume designer. Famous in Italy and in many other countries as the creator of a new theater founded on a totality of the arts and aimed at integral perception, he has written numerous essays on the theory of stagecraft, many of which recount his personal theatrical experience. His productions propose dramatic lines which are not subject to the primacy of literature and are highly complex and visually rich. His aim is to develop a language that is understandable throughout the world, as are the languages of music, sculpture, painting, and architecture.
