Lola Astanova

Taormina Greek Theatre

August 16th 2013, 9.30pm Some absolutely love her. Others criticize nearly everything she does. But one thing is certain: Lola Astanova is a phenomenon. A virtuoso often described as “firebrand” and nicknamed “the million-dollar pianist”, Lola is hardly your stereotypical classical musician. Add to that her interest in fashion, film and pop (yes, pop!) music, and it becomes obvious that no one traditional definition is sufficient and accurate enough to describe this unique artist.

La Libertà di essere Folle – The Freedom to be Crazy

Ancient Theatre, Sunday 4th August 2024 @ 9.30pm

 

Screenwriter: Titti Mazza

Director: Fabio La Rosa

Assistant Director: Anthony Abate

Musicians: Alba Letizia Sofia, Giuseppe Lisa

Ballet: Ennio Strongoli, Barbara Fazzari

 

The show is based on the method of “emotional theatre”,

Thanks to his works, Fabio La Rosa, the author, obtained the gold medal “Maison des artistes” Rome, the Cartagine prize at the European parliament of Rome and the certificate as a Testimonial of human rights at the Senate of Rome.

“The freedom to be crazy” is a show that takes inspiration from the reality of mental hospitals and the Basaglia Law.

  • Basaglia Law or Law 180 (Italian: Legge Basaglia, Legge 180) is the Italian Mental Health Act of 1978 which signified a large reform of the psychiatric system in Italy, contained directives for the closing down of all psychiatric hospitals and led to their gradual replacement with a whole range of community-based services, including settings for acute in-patient care. The Basaglia Law is the basis of Italian mental health legislation.  The principal proponent of Law 180 and its architect was Italian psychiatrist Franco Basaglia, therefore, Law 180 is known as the “Basaglia Law” from the name of its promoter.
