Storie Invisibili - Invisible stories is a visionary solo, an interior monologue that questions archetypes, desires and images of an experience that can be shared regardless of sex, race and language...C'est l'amour qu'est essentiel...
If we follow a thought's mysterious and meandering labyrinth, we meet the end and the origin of desire, shreds of endless solitude, illusions, unexpected alter-egos... Invisible stories explores these states of mind though an essential dance, symbolic and spare at the same time. The piece explores the (sexual, cultural, linguistic...) limits of humankind though a visual collage of thoughts freely derived from the myth of the Phoenix, the bird that dies and is born again from its own ashes, in perpetual movement, neither man nor woman...
... Rita Spadola stages a dance now geometrical, marked by rapid movements, now freer and more emotional... a good performance that rests solidly on the musics by Massimo Ferra and Tomasella Calvisi performed live by Angelica Turno...
Carlo Argiolas, L'Unione Sarda
A beautiful performance... the solo voices feelings of solitude, isolation and constraint that develop in a dance on the floor, a tormented attempt to rebel against limitations...
Roberta Sanna, La Nuova Sardegna
