The work that captivated Archipel spectators with its raw, visceral poetry in Misericordia returns to Archipel with a family story eroded by the weight of traditions. Subject to her husband's rage, the mother tries to hold on, until the day everything turns upside down. Yet, even after her death, no one seems to believe it. Every morning, she returns, like the household angel, to resume her endless routine: cleaning, preparing meals, watching over her family. Every evening, she dies again. Emma Dante transforms the stage into a ritualized space, where raw realism mingles with fable. With striking visual and emotional power, she imbues ordinary gestures with an inexorable symbolism, constantly oscillating between laughter and tears, to reveal the violence buried at the heart of daily life.
