We would like to thank the director, who has kindly granted permission to share her full director\u2019s notes with us:<\/strong>

\u00abThe Tower of Pisa is one of those symbols from which the human animal, versed in symbolism, draws comfort and inspiration, identifying with it and seeing it as a reflection of self, and this happens precisely because it is \u2026 lopsided!Its defect has become its strong point, redrafting its history and its relationship with the city. Over the past 850 years, this tower or, rather, this bell tower has kept watch over the city, \u201cmourning the dead, disrupting winds, honouring festivities, dispersing winds and inciting men\u201d, like a true mother.This diptych is intended to be a fresco about the Tower of Pisa, a medieval painting, like the marvellous 14th century frescoes in the cemetery, where there is neither time nor space, but everything coexists in an extraordinary composition, intermittently surreal and wondrous, in which rationality is forced to give way to amazement.In other words, a bestiary of the Tower over the centuries, from its benefactress Berta di Bernardo, up until today, up to the last foreign tourist who climbed yesterday to the top of the leaning tower.Its unmistakable tilt is a mirror of ourselves: a shortcoming, a state of imbalance that resolves itself into brawls, anger, inability to keep company, which has marked the history of the tower ever since construction began, when it was just a single floor and sank to one side. This is a quintessentially Italian story, often with contemporary characteristics, of blame passing back and forth like a pendulum that cannot come to rest, of the search for scapegoats, of conflict between religious and civil authority, and of scientists whose ideas are rejected.Collapse is a nightmare that we have always been fighting against.That is why it was important to narrate this ‘erratic dance’ of the Tower over eight centuries, with a body (or cluster of bodies), alive, pulsing, able to oscillate, about to fall and then to rise again, the living legend of a community that has, throughout the centuries, offered up blood and sweat in the name of its identity and its symbol. The only possible epilogue is to embrace the city of today and its audience, and together to face the current difficulty of the human condition: as we watch, we are all in danger of collapse and, to stay on our feet, must constantly challenge the laws of balance and adapt to a reality that shifts beneath us.We are like her, the breathing marble tower.\u00bb<\/td><\/tr>

Ringraziamo la regista che, per gentile concessione, condivide con noi l\u2019integrale delle note di regia:<\/strong>

\u00abLa Torre di Pisa \u00e8 una di quelle immagini da cui l\u2019uomo, che \u00e8 animale simbolico, trae conforto e ispirazione, nella quale si identifica e si specchia, e questo succede proprio perch\u00e9 \u00e8\u2026 storta!Il suo difetto \u00e8 diventato un punto di forza, ne ha ridisegnato la storia e la relazione con la citt\u00e0: in questi 850 anni la torre o, meglio, il campanile, ha vegliato sulla citt\u00e0, \u201cpiangendo i morti, infrangendo i venti, onorando le feste, dissipando i venti e incitando gli uomini\u201d, come una vera madre.Questo dittico vuole essere un affresco sulla Torre di Pisa, un dipinto medievale come i meravigliosi affreschi trecenteschi del campo santo, dove non esistono il tempo e lo spazio, ma tutto coesiste in una straordinaria composizione a tratti surreale e meravigliosa, dove la razionalit\u00e0 deve lasciar spazio allo stupore.Insomma, un bestiario della Torre nei secoli, dalla sua benefattrice Berta di Bernardo, sino a oggi, all\u2019ultimo turista straniero salito ieri in cima alla torre che pende.Il disequilibrio che la contradistingue \u00e8 uno specchio per noi: una mancanza, uno stato di instabilit\u00e0 che si trasforma in rissa, rabbia, incapacit\u00e0 di stare insieme, che ha contraddistinto la storia della torre sin dall\u2019inizio della sua costruzione, quando appena al primo piano \u00e8 sprofondata da un lato. Una storia tutta italiana, che ha tratti spesso contemporanei, di colpe che si rimpallano come un pendolo che non riesce a trovare il suo centro, di capri espiatori da trovare, contrasti tra potere religioso e potere civile, e scienziati che non vengono creduti.Il crollo \u00e8 un incubo contro il quale si combatte da sempre.Era dunque importante raccontare questa \u201cdanza erratica\u201d della Torre durata otto secoli, attraverso un corpo (o un agglomerato di corpi) vivo, palpitante, che sapesse oscillare, quasi cadere e poi ricostruirsi, mito vivente di una comunit\u00e0 che nei secoli ha offerto sangue e sudore per la sua identit\u00e0 e il suo simbolo.L\u2019epilogo non pu\u00f2 essere che un abbraccio alla citt\u00e0 di oggi, alla platea del teatro, la condivisione di una condizione umana ora difficile: tutti noi che guardiamo, siamo sempre in pericolo di crollo, e dobbiamo costantemente sfidare le leggi dell\u2019equilibrio e adattarci alla realt\u00e0 che cambia sotto i nostri piedi, per stare diritti.Noi come lei, la torre di marmo che respira\u00bb.<\/td><\/tr>
