Opening tomorrow at the Harbourfront Centre, as part of World Stage 2010-11, is Questo Buio Feroce, or (The Wild Darkness.) The show, by performer/creator Pippo Delbono is being hailed as a theatrical spectacle combining dance, theatre and carnival. Questo Buio Feroce is inspired by the autobiographical essays, The Wild Darkness: The Story of My Life, by American Harold Brodkey.
Brodkey, was writing about his life as he neared death from AIDS. The Wild Darkness was published in 1996. For this stage adaption, Delbono, worked with actors and non-actors alike, including former homeless performers, and even one individual who lived for over 40 years in a Naples asylum for the insane. It is sure to be a gripping evening.
EAP is going to see the show on Thursday, to take part in the Q and A after the performance. Questo Buio Feroce runs January 26th - 29th. Click the header for box office information. (Image courtesy of World Stage and photographer Gianluigi di Napoli)
