(August 24, 2016) In the theater and dance performance entitled “Metopes of the Parthenon” Romeo Castellucci staged a sophisticated interplay between art and reality that confronts the great existential questions: where do we come from? Where are we headed? After Basel and Paris, where the performance was staged last year, Castellucci is ready to bring its representation in Cologne: Sunday, August 28, at 16 and 19, and Monday, August 29 at 19 at Opelwerk Rüsselsheim. “The basis of the show – says the Italian Institute presentation of culture – is an unexpected event, perhaps an accident, but what really happened remains unclear: what you see is just an aching person, the second stretch indefinitely until someone comes to help him”. The show is a Romeo Castellucci / Societas Raffaello Sanzio production, in collaboration with Theater Basel, La Villette, Festival d’Automne à Paris as part of the Wiesbaden Biennale (August 25-September 4).
