Sementi (Seeds)

Invisible in their potential, yet capable of germinating in surprising forms that shape the world.
Like theater, by its very nature ambiguous in telling immense truths through lies, this season aims to sow acts of awareness. The stage, often a canvas for fiction, becomes a fertile ground where words and silences intertwine to create a dialogue between what appears and what remains hidden.
In a world that rushes, where people judge before listening, where human connections slip away, where do we find the space to pause, reflect, and feel?
“SEMENTI” is an invitation to cultivate imagination, to nurture the invisible, so that tomorrow’s images may bloom from seeds planted consciously. Theater thus reveals itself as a place where the boundary between truth and lies dissolves, leaving space for a more authentic observation of our existence. A paradox that enables us to see with new eyes and embrace the unexpected, questioning what we often take for granted: love, death, rebirth.
In the first year of this cultural initiative, we wish that every performance, every encounter, becomes a small gesture of care that, as it grows, may bear fruits of shared reflection and collective memory. It is a work of germination that involves the youngest and the eldest, so that the intangible legacy of our territory may renew over time, fueled by the energy of those who believe in the transformative power of art.
Let these precise images be the seeds of a future that we choose to cultivate together with respect, care, and passion, so that each of them may become a sprout of rebirth.
We invite you to embrace this season as a call to action, so that the beauty and culture of truth may flourish, one day, in the heart of Alberobello and beyond.
