After Happy Hour (Luminux for Theatrical Moment and Total Theatre awards) and El Pueblo Unido Jamás Será Vencido, Alessandro Bernardeschi and Mauro Paccagnella conclude their Memory Trilogy with Closing Party (arrivederci e grazie) AKA the Trilogy of the Fifty-somethings. This glitter-less party gives us an opportunity to ponder the last gasps of great utopias. Depicting the ups-and-downs of middle age, recasting completion and exhaustion as potential new beginnings; where intimate recollections and collective memory intertwine. A farewell waltz, blending intimate souvenirs and collective memory. With Alessandro Bernardeschi and Carlotta Sagna/Mauro Paccagnella, featuring Ares D’Angelo.
