In a world that tends to homologate, thus becoming, in every aspect of our lives, grey, flat and uniform, so creating the world of universal similarity (including language), does it still make sense today to talk about vernacular theatre? Tackling such a question implies uncovering the reasons for the disappearance of the many regional theatres that were present in Italy in the nineteenth century. There is no doubt that first the unification of the country in 1861, and then the language policies of fascism in the '30s were the final nails in the coffin for local theatres. It is also true, howe

Perdu dans les rues de Londres, Jasmin, jeune loup de la finance débarqué de Montréal, rencontre un garçon prénommé Hadi qui cherche à lui vendre un tapis précieux aux motifs fascinants. Ce qui pourrait être une banale transaction se transforme en une véritable énigme quand le vendeur demande à Jasmin le mot de passe qui conclura le « deal ». Cette quête initiatique défiant le temps et l'espace révèle l'auteur montréalais Sébastien Harrisson joué pour la première fois en Belgique. Et ce sont deux comédiens québécois francophones de Montréal, une québécoise anglophone résidant à New York, une actrice bruxelloise flamande et un acteur belge d'origine marocaine vivant à Bruxelles qui portent cette comédie à la lisière du fantastique où langues et identités s'entrechoquent sous le regard amusé du philosophe Michel Foucault.

The life of William Shakespeare, arguably the most significant figure in the Western literary canon, is relatively unknown. Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in 1565, possibly on the 23rd April, St. George's Day, and baptised there on 26th April. Little is known of his education and the first firm facts to his life relate to his marriage, aged 18, to Anne Hathaway, who was 26 and from the nearby village of Shottery. Anne gave birth to their first son six months later. Shakespeare's first play, The Comedy of Errors began a procession of real heavyweights that were to emanate from his pen in a career of just over twenty years in which 37 plays were written and his reputation forever established. This early skill was recognised by many and by 1594 the Lord Chamberlain's Men were performing his works. With the advantage of Shakespeare's progressive writing they rapidly became London's leading company of players, affording him more exposure and, following the death of Queen Elizabeth in 1603, a royal patent by the new king, James I, at which point they changed their name to the King's Men. By 1598, and despite efforts to pirate his work, Shakespeare's name was well known and had become a selling point in its own right on title pages. No plays are attributed to Shakespeare after 1613, and the last few plays he wrote before this time were in collaboration with other writers, one of whom is likely to be John Fletcher who succeeded him as the house playwright for the King's Men. William Shakespeare died two months later on April 23rd, 1616, survived by his wife, two daughters and a legacy of writing that none have since yet eclipsed.

This work rethinks the hegemonic and sentimental optimism around the arts and creative economy by politicizing a global discursive regime that effectively asks the poor to eat heritage.

Nel febbraio 2015 si è tenuto a Mantova un convegno internazionale per ricordare e rendere omaggio a Umberto Artioli, un evento che in primis ha voluto tener presente quel suo intento umanistico di restituire alla sua città un ruolo di centro di elaborazione culturale e rappresentativa in senso lato attuato con lideazione e promozione della Fondazione Mantova Capitale Europea dello Spettacolo, oggi a lui intitolata. Prendendo spunto dal lavoro di ricerca realizzato in più di sedici anni di attività scientifica si è deciso di approfondire lo studio di tutte quelle figure, spesso minori o sconosciute, che hanno concorso alla concezione e alla realizzazione delle attività spettacolari patrocinate dai Gonzaga dal 1480 al 1630. Infatti, una delle più affascinanti peculiarità dello spettacolo rinascimentale è stata quella di riunire gli esperti più abili di arti diverse e, in un certo senso, di obbligarli a lavorare insieme per la realizzazione di un evento unico e irripetibile. Allo stesso modo abbiamo idealmente voluto riprodurre quel clima tra i relatori che sono stati chiamati a offrire il loro contributo, coinvolgendo esperti di vari ambiti di ricerca, dalle discipline dello spettacolo, alla musica, larte, larchitettura, la letteratura, la storia. Ne è nato un percorso particolarmente ricco e variegato di cui questi Atti offrono uno spaccato fedele.
