Dietro il tendone (Behind the big top)
Like a ship docking in a port empties its holds on the quay scattering its cargo here and there: ropes and tarps, big trunks, clothes, wigs and hats, coloured lights and strange toys.
Suddenly, one finds oneself in front of an unknown world of ephemeral emotions.
The echo of music resounds through the open hatches, and strange characters wearing make up, eccentric clothes and colorful wigs invite us to come on board to busk in the excitement of the journey.
The timeless journey of a ship that weighs anchor just for a few hours which leaves a lasting impression on those who have experienced it.
Emotions that resurface the very next day when, as suddenly as it came, the ship is ready to set sail once again, carrying on its journey in search of a new dock.
