Pastel coloured shadow images, watercoloured and rhythmically calm and relaxed, give a peaceful ambiance to a story about important matters.
Moun is a delicate play, telling the story of a little girl “adopted” by a new life, as a consequence of war. The strong point of this production lies in the balance between the graveness of the subjects, and the “poetic lightness” of the narration. Hence, despite it being about abandonment, adoption, nostalgia, and self-construction, watching it will give a sense of great serenity and hope for the future.
Moun is the vibrant testimony to how even the most painful sides to human experience can be transformed. To do so, Teatro Gioco Vita turns to a signature scenographic style capable of embracing and toning down every stinging or sore shade, giving a poetic rhythm that teaches a light but confident pace, enabling one to face the waves that life confronts us with.
On stage, a single actress telling us the story of Moun, using a theatrical language that merges narration and dance with the whole repertoire of shadow techniques.
