The new show by Teatro Due Mondi on tour in France
Amour Amor is a French-Italian co-production born from the willing of Teatro Due Mondi and Compagnie du Hasard to create together a show in which the forces and specificities of the two companies were joined.
The result has been a “vaudeville gastronomique”, since, as the direction notes inform us, both companies are based in an area of agricultural and viticultural production – Teatro Due Mondi in Faenza, in the region of Romagna, Compagnie du Hasard in Feings, in the region of Loir-et-Cher – and «because we love to eat and drink, we wanted to create a show telling about the fundamental thing taste is».
The protagonist is the lazy Paul/Bradipo (Sloth), who must inherit the family restaurant, but his depression and his lack of taste make him doubt. Love by his neighbour Olga will be able to awake all his senses.
This «story of a search for happiness» was written by Bruno Cadillon (Compagnie du Hasard), set to music by Antonella Talamonti (Teatro Due Mondi), and nourished by each artist’s creativity: actors, costume designers, dramatists, directors, stage designers.
Amour Amor premiered in Les Montils on September 6. From September 8, it started a long tour in other eleven cities of the Loir-et-Cher that will end in Fresnes on September 19.
