It is difficult to express in words what it meant for me to participate - albeit briefly - to this great little project. They are joined in the Silence Theatre almost by accident in 2000 and stayed until 2006. During this time a lot has happened and not a few of these while traveling that brought us here and there in the streets and festivals of Europe.

Today I bumped into the director of the company, Louis Pezzotti. To write this today - just today - these two lines to remember the comrades of Silence Theatre.

I have neither the time nor the inclination to prepare a statement of my memories, but I can not refrain from recording here the two things that I most deeply impressed by the unique experience: the smell and the warmth of the clay that is mixed with the voices of friends and the feeling you get by mounting lights and sound in a square that anchors retains the heat of the summer sun had already come down over the profile of the houses, while people passing looks at you and talks to you in a language you do not know.

Here are two lines of presentation of the company, taken directly from the pages of the official website:

The Association for Research SILENCE theater theater undertakes the task of searching through forms of expression tend to blend theater and Environment with the aim to foster a creative dialectic between urban and artistic proposal.

SILENCE The theater has acquired the conviction that the subject should rotate around its own theatrical experience so that the cultural and historical heritage of the community can be revisited and developed as a theatrical event.

This concept originated with his traveling shows which participates in many important festivals in Russia, Poland, Slovakia, Italy, Holland, Belgium, Austria, Great Britain, Germany, France, Spain, Estonia, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Georgia , Finland, Luxembourg, Yugoslavia, Hungary, Ukrajna, Latvia, Lebanon, Romania, Armenia and Turkey.

SILENCE The theater, in addition to producing shows, is very active in promoting cultural organizing, in collaboration with public institutions, workshops and theater reviews.

SILENCE The theater is also the creator and promoter of educational-cultural "Places of Memory", a theater workshop aimed at building a street performance and the project "Theatre and Rock Engravings", performance is engraved on the rocks of Vallecamonica . Another project recently developed by the theater company is on SILENCE THEATRE AND MENTAL ILLNESS manifesting itself in the show / read titled "Me, myself ... and other things."

I send an affectionate remembrance from this post and a virtual hug to all the friends of Silence Theatre: M *** a, you guys! M *** a!
