Mistero Buffo

Matthias Martelli stages Mistero buffo by Dario Fo and Franca Rame, in the version once directed by Eugenio Allegri. The verb of the “giullarate” in this show returns to the audience with new energy, after having conquered Italian and foreign stages with its explosive mix of comedy, poetry and social critique. Written in 1969, it is considered the seed of narrative theatre: a one-act piece made up of monologues inspired by religious themes and reinvented through grammelot, the onomatopoeic language that made Fo famous. The work was born from the desire to bring back to the stage the irreverent vitality of medieval jesters, overturning the perspective on sacred stories and returning them to the public through an immediate and unconventional language.
