About

The show "Tu mi sognavi, io non dormivo. La storia d'amore segreta tra Anna Achmatova e Amedeo Modigliani" is waiting for you at Teatro Cantiere Florida in Florence (FI). In the vibrant Parisian scene of 1910, two predestined souls cross paths: Anna Achmatova, a young Russian poet of captivating beauty, and Amedeo Modigliani, an Italian artist with magnetic charisma. Their encounter, taking place among bohemian cafés and art studios, becomes an explosion of passion and creativity. Modigliani, with his bold stroke and overwhelming love, courts Anna with the same ardor with which he lives his art. But their love is clandestine, overshadowed by the shadows of poverty and illness. While Modigliani struggles with tuberculosis, Anna returns to Russia at her husband's will. Back in Paris in 1911, alone and without her husband, Anna finds Modigliani transformed, consumed by poverty and addiction. Despite this, their intimacy is renewed. But fate separates them once again, leaving Anna with the memory of an unforgettable love and Modigliani with the inspiration for some of his most daring works.
