A show by Roberto Zappalà with the dramaturgical collaboration of Nello Calabrò, the Trilogy of Ecstasy is based on three of the most famous compositions of the last century: The Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune by Claude Debussy, the Boléro by Maurice Ravel and Le Sacre du printemps by Igor Stravinskij. The key to the trilogy is the work on space, in which a "scenic device" is created which, time by time, limits, amplifies and modifies the choreography, also curated by Roberto Zappalà. A single scenic set will host the creation, which at the same time contains respectively exclusion, courtship and eros in the Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune; inclusion, vice and lust in Boléro and finally persecution and sacrifice in Le Sacre du printemps. The project is a co-production between: Scenario Pubblico | Compagnia Zappalà Danza Centro di Rilevante Interesse Nazionale, Fondazione Teatro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino (Florence), Centre Chorégraphique National de Rillieux-la-Pape (Lion), Fondazione I Teatri (Reggio Emilia), MilanOltre Festival (Milan), Teatro Massimo Bellini (Catania), in collaborazione con Fondazione Teatri di Piacenza, Fondazione Ravenna Manifestazioni, Teatro del Giglio (Lucca).
