Art among the hills. In the Garden of the Hesperides everything is magic

Welcome the ritual. Somewhere among the hills. Be part of a (secular) celebration, in which the performing arts return to dialogue with the landscape. Which is one of the characteristics of Il Giardino delle Esperidi . Its original matrix. From tomorrow to July 13, a 21st edition on the horizons of Monte di Brianza and Lecco, between the Monte Barro Park and the Regional Park of Montevecchia and the Curone Valley . Distance from Milan: 40 minutes. And as a reward, you can feel a breeze that you won't believe. Inspired poster. Organized by Campsirago Residenza , directed by Michele Losi . Many names on the agenda and non-aligned projects, under the title: "From dusk till dawn, from dawn to dusk". Which immediately makes you think of a 90s splatter film. In a program that involves the entire day. Literally.

Don't miss the national premiere of " Persephone La Notte - L'alba si presentaò sbracciata e impudica ", a site-specific performance by Phoebe Zeitgeist directed by Giuseppe Isgrò . On Saturday, starting at midnight, you can get lost in the woods. Who knows if you'll find yourself again. But during the day, there will also be works by Serli/Collavino and Alice and Davide Sinigaglia. On Friday, Lemming and "Boiler Room - Generazione Y" by Ksenija Martinovic. During the week, there will be works by Losi, Motus ("Daemon", Friday 11), Kronoteatro with Francesca Sarteanesi, and Sotterraneo. Many collateral events: thematic itineraries, initiatives for the little ones, round tables. Precious opportunities for discussion. Especially now. In fact, a huge discontent is growing in the sector after the latest ministerial decisions on funding for festivals and stages. The feeling is that we are preparing for a very tough political clash. But for this it will be essential to find ourselves in many, united and without that painful look of those who feel like the son of a lesser god. Will the theater be able to do it? Diego Vincenti
