16 January 2027

On Saturday 16 January 2027 at 20:45 the Teatro Francesco Cilea in Reggio Calabria hosts «L'Esclusa», a stage work drawn from Luigi Pirandello. Staged by Mitoff and Compagnia dei Miti, it revisits one of the Sicilian author's most significant texts, moving through themes that have lost none of their currency: social judgement, identity, exclusion and the relationship between the individual and the community.

On Saturday 16 January 2027, at 20:45, the Teatro Francesco Cilea in Reggio Calabria hosts «L'Esclusa», a stage work drawn from Luigi Pirandello. It is part of Le Maschere e i Volti, the Cilea's season from January to April 2027.

A Pirandello that still speaks

Staged by Mitoff and Compagnia dei Miti, the show revisits one of the Sicilian author's most significant texts, moving through themes that have lost none of their currency: social judgement, identity, exclusion and the relationship between the individual and the community. «L'Esclusa» is Pirandello's first novel, and it already contains the knots he would go on to work at for the rest of his life.

The cast

On stage are Debora Caprioglio, Stefano Masciarelli and Salvatore Carmine Guglielmino, together with Laura Sfilio, Marta Limoli and Martina Cielo Iacoboni. The adaptation and stage writing are by Salvatore Carmine Guglielmino, who also directs: this is an authored reading rather than a neutral transposition of the text.
