La trama
La leggenda di Tristano e Isotta è antichissima, una delle vicende più romantiche del medioevo: narra le avventure di un cavaliere e di una principessa che si innamorano grazie a un magico Elisir. Wagner compose l’opera su ispirazione del testo di Goffredo di Strasburgo e riuscì a portarla in scena nel 1865. È considerata tuttora uno dei capolavori di ogni tempo. La versione che verrà rappresentata, pur mantenendo integre le linee essenziali sia drammaturgiche che musicali, è adattata in modo da esaltare gli aspetti fiabeschi magici e simbolici della vicenda che ha al centro temi importanti legati all’immaginario e all’ideale orizzonte del mondo cavalleresco, come la ricerca dell’amore, il rapporto fra morale pubblica e morale privata, il peccato, la fedeltà.

The plot
Frantz and Grittly are two young street artists from Tyrol on the route to Strasbourg. Why are they traveling? To visit and help Charlotte, Grittly’s sister, who has recently become a widower, after the alleged passing of her husband Bertoldo. Their encounter with a merchant called ‘U Venditor sweeps them up in a whirlwind of misunderstandings, promises, and lies: everything revolves around a lottery ticket, a symbol of easy (and deceptive) fortune. Amid laughter and twists and turns, the show invites us to reflect on how fragile dreams of wealth are and how solid human bonds and the truth of feelings are.
Spoken and sung parts of the performance are in Italian; a basic understanding of the language is adviced.
Performances from Tue to Fri are events for school groups. In case seats are available to the general audience, they will be on sale on the same day of performance at the box-office.
Sat and Sun performances are open to everyone.
