Non ti pago

A classic of Eduardo’s comedy, performed by a cast of excellent Neapolitan actors. The return of Luca De Filippo’s last production.
-
Teatro Strehler
Luca De Filippo passed away as the applause was fading for his last show, Non ti pago, which was staged at the Teatro Strehler last November, and which was received with enormous enthusiasm every evening for two weeks. Luca De Filippo, unable to perform, was substituted in the lead role by Gianfelice Imparato, but the show was his and this is how the Milanese audiences perceived, understood and loved it. The Piccolo has decided to allow it to live beyond his memory: Non ti pago will return to the Teatro Strehler with its company in the Spring of 2017.
Non ti pago is one of the most brilliant comedies from the repertoire of Eduardo, which the great Neapolitan playwright himself defined “a very comical comedy which, in my opinion, is the most tragic I have ever written”. Ferdinando Quagliuolo, the manager of a lottery shop in Naples, doggedly plays without ever choosing a winning number. On the contrary his employee and future son-in-law Mario Bertolini, by interpreting his dreams, collects win after win, even managing to hit the jackpot with four numbers given to him in a dream by his boss’s late father. Blinded by raging jealousy, Don Ferdinando refuses to pay the win...
