An amphibious work: a monologue for two actors and a single character. Lino Guanciale stages the poetic and dizzying work by Christian di Furia, a journey to explore the mind and language, a confession, a game, a shipwreck. With ironic, lyrical and ferocious language, the author creates a poetical exploration of the meaning of identity and time.

Teatro Grassi
Flusso (Flow), like a liquid that runs, or the waters of a river marking the valley. A flow of people moving together at the same moment. Like the sea that swells and grows under the influence of the Moon. A flow, like that of conscience: thoughts lined up, in a rush to get them out. Lino Guanciale stages an amphibious work in which he also performs, alongside Gianmarco Saurino: a monologue for two actors. Two actors, one character. A single character and two lives: the man is the child he was and that he still is. They both live in a room, one that is both real and invented, a true place, like the ships and vessels of the great novels. His life has been lived and imagined, like a story, which only happens if it is read and told. The story takes the form of works that swirl as though in a storm, finally overflowing and falling between the pages of Moby Dick, of Pinocchio, and of the legends with which we have grown. Christian di Furia has written a poetic and dizzying work, a journey to explore the mind and language; a confession, a game, a shipwreck. The protagonist slips between thoughts, recollections and visions: his voice transforms and multiplies, exploring eras, films and childhood homes. With ironic, lyrical and ferocious language, the author creates a poetical exploration of the meaning of identity and time, on growth, death and the impossibility of ceasing to exist.
