Fagiolino Golden ass
Teatro del Drago

On Stage: Mauro Monticelli e Gianluca Palma
Text: Francesco Niccolini, Mauro Monticelli
Costumes, Scenography and Puppets: Arianna Maritan, Michela Bellagamba
Light designer: Andrea Monticelli
Thanks to: “Filodrammatici” di Piacenza, Teatro Petrella di Longiano, Teatro Comunale di Russi
The show combines three different genres: puppet theater, the ancient art of storyteller, and juggling. Irony and spontaneous comedy are constants that manage to amalgamate different situations and mark the show.
The work of Apuleius, known to all as “The golden ass”, is the source of inspiration for the adventures of the puppet Fagiolino. The story is told by two odd characters: Zambutèn – gruff charlatan salesman of ointments and scam remedies – and Verruca, his assistant. The scenography is reminiscent of a decadent nineteenth-century acrobat circus.
The terrible sorceress Saturnina transforms Fagiolino from puppet to donkey. And he, desperate, asks for help from the Magician Ermete Trimegisto who, however, mercilessly sends him to hell where he will have to face Charon and Cerberus, the three-headed dog. Thanks to the intervention of the Goddess Venus, the situation will be resolved in the best way.
