REVIEWS

“A group of six dancers cleverly and never superfluously choreographed by Silvia Giordano reinforce the actor’s part and animate Allegri’s dances using well the unusual environment, with a direction worthy of being defined as such “.

Filippo Antichi
Connessi all’Opera 

 

“The choreographer Silvia Giordano creates timeless and abstract paintings that speak of falling in love and seduction, of marriages, of conjugal love, up to domestic violence, symbolizing the rebellion of Daphne who escapes at all costs the insistent courtship of Apollo”.
