An escape to Egypt<\/h2><\/div>

Virtual route to exile<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

A Mary who self-fecundates in herself a revolutionary thought; who announces her Immaculate Conception to an angel who has become an atheist. A fearful and conformist Joseph, incapable of understanding and ready to divorce. A temple determined to make carnage of eyes unwilling to be programmed. A Mary who will give birth to a gaze destined to liberate the world. A salvation, not yet saved, to be saved.<\/span><\/p>\n

Three workers of the word, Lina Prosa, Tino Caspanello and Turi Zinna, invade the field of virtual reality to devise a multidimensional immersive experience that blurs the boundaries between the intimate and the political, the simulated and the concrete, the here and there, the now and the then. An experience that blurs the boundaries between virtual reality itself and performance.<\/span><\/p>\n

With the idea of a total theater in mind, Turi Zinna amalgamates the world of dramaturgy, 360-degree immersive three-dimensional cinema, digital visual arts, electronic music and theatrical technique, thanks to a solid cast of excellent actors - Barbara Giordano as Mary, Marcello Montalto as Joseph, Chiaraluce Fiorito and Giovanni Arezzo as the Black Archangel and the White Archangel, respectively, and Valentina Ferrante as Elizabeth -, to the aforementioned authors, to superlative masters of the various compartments - Giancarlo Trimarchi for composition and sound engineering, Antonio Parrinello for photography direction.<\/span><\/p>\n

An Escape to Egypt is a theater project developed entirely for virtual reality viewers. The audience, wearing the visor, will perceive that they are inside and part of the same environment in which the characters act.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Through a combination of cutting-edge technology, immersive soundscapes, scent and touch, the piece explores the intricate connection between memory, senses, world perception, manipulation and consciousness. As well as an inherently feminine worldview irreconcilable with any autocratic-patriarchal albeit ultramodern and technological system.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>
