Vague

Vague is born from the desire to explore the mechanisms of memory.
It wants to focus on the dichotomy between a perceived phenomenon at a moment in time and its mnemonic conservation on the structuring of identity: how do we relate to an existence whose image is distorted by vague, missing or counterfeit information? Is it possible to make sense of and live with what happened if only a tangle of contradictions remains in our mind? 

There was Tommaso, a mask character, an old man. There is his relationship with his traumatic past & the ambiguous image he keeps of it in his mind. There is the relationship with his sister and their relationship with memories.

The ambiguous nature of the identities of relationships and events is metaphorically represented by two mythological figures; Mnemosine and Lete, memory and oblivion, and the scenic element of water, which recurs in the video projection, in the scene elements and in the morphology of the sounds used in the musical landscape.

It brings into play different expressive forms: theatre, dance, music, video, puppetry. How can different elements from different languages complement and modify each other?
