Biennale College Teatro / Silvia Costa, Jacopo Giacomoni - Tacet
Description
Philosophy, metaphysics and mathematics merge with originality in Tacet, a twice-awarded text that Jacopo Giacomoni wrote with in mind that final secular rite—both personal and collective—the minute of silence, observed in stadiums, in parliament, in classrooms. The work plays with the metronome, in search of what it means to be together in silence, within a minute, within a theatre. There are no sets, costumes, or stage wings: only six performers, metronomes, and music stands—minimal means for probing time and rendering it perceptible as living matter.
“The performance originates from the idea that dramaturgy is a temporal cartography, a sextant for a journey through the different grains of time, a map for traversing seconds and pauses that only theatre can grant”.
