Pierino e il Lupo
SHOW FOR PRIMARY SCHOOLS
Peter and the Wolf is a simple yet emotionally rich tale. As the story unfolds, the protagonist will meet friends and foes who will experience fear, friendship, joy, and sorrow alongside him. In an original and fun way, the audience will try to recognize, together with the characters, the orchestra’s instruments, their movements, and their emotions. What do they sound like? How do they move?
In the introduction, the audience will be involved in creating the movements that the dancers will perform in the second part of the show. The children themselves will make Peter and the Wolf an interactive performance, always different and easy to understand even for the youngest viewers.
A perfect show to make children aged 6 and up fall in love with theater.
Direction and script: KanterStrasse
Choreography: Beatrice Ciattini and Niccolò Poggini
Music: Sergei Prokofiev
Narrator: Alessio Martinoli
Dancers: 7 dancers
Duration: 55 minutes
Production: Nuovo Balletto di Toscana
First performance 2/12/2023 MET RAGAZZI, Fabbricone Prato (PO)
The language used is contemporary dance, with particular attention to the exploration of movements that evoke clear yet non-descriptive imagery. The choreographers guide young spectators through a vision marked by narrative clarity, which, however, does not rely on the pantomime of classical ballet. Instead, through a play of forms and dynamics, they allow the audience to follow the plot’s development.
Prokofiev’s music supports the directorial approach, which, while preserving the original and highly descriptive score, allows the work to be completely understandable and accessible to the audience. The performance plays on the parallelism between music and movement; it recreates repeated movements over time that characterize the characters, just as the musical score does.

VISIONI DEL CORPO: IL CORPO GRANDE
The final event of Visions of the Body: understanding contemporary art through signature dance.
A “dancing encyclopedia” that speaks about the world through dance, placing the body at the center of the human experience. A series of six cultural dissemination events that connect the arts, movement, and current issues, addressing themes such as psychological well-being, the relationship with the city, the future, and ecology, through an experimental cultural medium.
Nicolas Ballario, journalist, curator, and educator, introduces the theme of the debate, which, moving between dance and contemporary arts, reflects on the body from a different perspective each time. Each event is divided into six segments, dedicated to the works of six artists chosen to explore the central theme: well-known faces of the contemporary art world, familiar to the general public. Each event will be interpreted by a choreographer from the contemporary scene, who will translate the inspirations of the featured works into dance through an original performance, created specifically for the project.
Sixth appointment: Friday 29 November h 20.30 at Fonderia
Il corpo grande (The big body)
Talk with Nicolas Ballario and Roberta Ferrara
Choreographies by Roberta Ferrara
Focus on Fausto Delle Chiaie, Damien Hirst, JR, Ron Mueck, Niki de Saint Phalle, Claes Oldenburg
On November 29th, the series of events concludes with The Big Body: Roberta Ferrara brings to Fonderia details and impactful disproportions, from glamour to urban art, from Fausto Delle Chiaie to Damien Hirst.
The audience will have the opportunity to experience Fernando Melo’s Never Odd or Even through Oculus headsets: a work where proportion is pushed to the extreme, entirely based on the real size of the two dancers, who always tower over the viewer.

FONDERIA ATERBALLETTO
via della Costituzione 39, Reggio Emilia
La Bottega dei Giocattoli
La bottega dei giocattoli (The Toy Shop) is the perfect show to experience the magic of Christmas.
The great book of fairy tales opens, bringing to life a story of toys with voices and souls, of enchanted nights where a young shop assistant is allowed to cross the thresholds of the impossible and become the champion of a universe threatened by a dark, faceless master.
Recommended age: 3 years and up
Text and direction: Sandra Novellino and Delia De Marco
With Delia De Marco / Antonio Guadalupi, Savino Maria Italiano, Sara Pagliaro
Recorded voices by Anna Ferruzzo and Giovanni Guarino
Set, costumes, and lighting design by Maria Pascale
Original music by Mirko Lodedo
Stage technician Vito Marra / Walter Mirabile
Special thanks to Chiara Calò
Production by Crest
Recommended age: 3 years and up | Technique: actor theater and dance | Duration: 55 minutes
Stories about toys that come to life have always inhabited the fantasies of children, who naturally play by giving a soul to objects.
Our story takes place in a toy shop, and aren’t toy shops like little cities where toys live like people? Or perhaps, aren’t cities like toy shops where people live like toys? There’s always a more beautiful doll and an envious doll, a teddy bear that falls in love and a jealous toy soldier, a bad mother and a good fairy, carousels and toy cars that never tire of spinning. A parallel world that helps children experience emotions, learning not to “lose their way,” moving from joy to disappointment, from melancholy to cheerfulness, from love to resentment. A city usually alive at night, because it dwells deep within emotions. Not just childhood ones.
Aimed at younger children, the production is the result of years of work by Crest’s team, even in preschools, exploring the most effective theatrical language for such a unique and challenging audience. The goal is to test languages and techniques that naturally leave little room for words, favoring images, music, and… play.
The show also comes to life through the original music of Mirko Lodedo, a true soundscape for the actions, dance, and storytelling that bring the toys to life. Or perhaps it’s the toys that bring the actors to life? You’ll only find out by visiting our shop.
Born in Taranto in 1977, Crest—an acronym for “Collettivo di Ricerche Espressive e Sperimentazione Teatrale” (Collective for Expressive Research and Theatrical Experimentation)—was initially led by Gianni Solazzo, Mauro Maggioni, and Gaetano Colella, and later by Clara Cottino, Giovanni Guarino, and Sandra Novellino. The company has maintained a coherent and innovative theatrical discourse in a challenging environment—both socially and culturally—by telling stories of complicated lives, stubborn dreams, and encounters between different cultures and conditions. Crest strives to blend traditional theatrical languages with contemporary research.
Since 1992, Crest has been listed by the Italian Presidency of the Council of Ministers among the “…companies that perform at a high and qualified level in the field of theater for children and youth.” The company has chosen children, adolescents, and young people as its primary audience, aiming to create a strong cultural and professional reference point. Crest’s goal has always been to bridge the gap between different audiences. Its productions are presented in evening programs, school events, research schedules, and drama seasons, as well as in specialized festivals.
Notably, Crest was a finalist for the ETI-Stregagatto Prize with the plays “La neve era bianca” in 1999, “La mattanza” in 2000, and “Cane nero” in 2001. The company also produced the winning play of the 2005 Premio Scenario, “Il deficiente.” Crest won three editions of the “L’uccellino azzurro” Award (at the “Ti fiabo e ti racconto” festival in Molfetta) with the plays “La storia di Hansel e Gretel” (2009 and 2015) and “Sposa sirena” (2013). Additionally, the company received the Eolo Award in 2018 and the 2017 Padova Prize – Friends of Emanuele Luzzati (XXXVI National Festival of Theater for Children) with the play “Biancaneve, la vera storia.”
In 2023, Crest won the National Association of Theater Critics Award “for its significant commitment to working in an environmentally critical area.”

Le Blatte
The choreographer Carlo Massari and his company C&C Company return to the Fonderia with a new ironic and tragicomic choreography.
LE BLATTE is a contemporary, surreal, and social physical fable, harsh and disillusioned, attempting to describe reality in its moving and wonderfully desolate state. A humanist parable, narrated with unreal lightness, this new creation tries to transform the banality of daily life into poetry, suspending its antihero protagonists between the prison of reality and a dream of escape.
Wednesday, December 18 at 6:00 PM open rehearsal
Wednesday, December 18 at 8:30 PM performance
NOTTE MORRICONE
«”I, Ennio Morricone, am dead”, wrote the composer before saying goodbye. His music, on the other hand, cannot. And this is how creators and artists always leave us without leaving us, and this is how memory takes care of keeping them alive, keeping them safe. Notte Morricone is my gift, a devoted tribute to the beauty he gave to the world. Ennio Morricone could be my father, or my grandfather, I am a direct heir of his legacy, of the films that (whether masterpieces, good, mediocre, or bad) owe him an immeasurable debt.» – Marcos Morau
Notte Morricone, the new creation of CCN/Aterballetto signed by the award-winning choreographer Marcos Morau, is in Ludwigsburg, Germany.
Notte Morricone is a devoted tribute by choreographer Marcos Morau to the beauty that Oscar winner Ennio Morricone gave to the world.
Notte Morricone takes place in the twilight of an ordinary night in the life of a creative, who alone and dazed in front of his sheets, takes notes and visualizes melodies for films that do not yet exist, bringing stories back to life in the rarefied air of his room.
