Giardino – Theatre Performance at Teatro San Materno

Giardino is an invitation to listen closely to the landscape – made of seeds, flowers and trees – in order to reconnect with ourselves, draw on our inner strengths, and move towards others with respect and kindness, making the world a more beautiful place for all its inhabitants. Alma, the globe-trotting gardener, guides young audiences through an immersive and joyful journey into the world of theatre and nature, using stories, poetry and clowning.

Giardino is a place of discovery, play and listening, where plants, leaves and seeds intertwine with words and sounds to become stories. Elements of nature lead us on a journey: through the garden of painter Cuno Amiet, among the trees of Mr. Gino, and into the poetry of Emily Dickinson.

“We could not live without plants. They, on the other hand, could live without us.” Bruno Munari
