Coppia Aperta Quasi Spalancata - Chiara Francini, Alessandro Federico

The energetic Antonia embodies the perfect heroine of all betrayed wives and tells with irony their "survival" within the domestic walls. In order to continue to be close to her husband, the protagonist decides to accept the unthinkable. Thus, between brilliant dialogues and monologues, the most absurd episodes unfold. Only when a new, young and intelligent man insinuates himself into Antonia's heart, does her husband seem to realize the existence of his wife, of her being a woman, of her desperate need to be loved and considered. This comedy is a tragicomic fable that tells what it means to be in a couple. Fo and Rame describe it perfectly with entertaining, but also dramatic tones, recounting the differences between male and female psychology, in which everyone can recognize themselves. "Coppia aperta...quasi spalancata" portrays the relative intolerance of the concept of monogamy. It is one of the most popular shows in Italy. In Germany, it has been so successful that it has been proposed in as many as 30 theaters simultaneously.
