From November 28 to December 1, Mario Banushi’s Taverna Miresia takes the stage at Fonderie Limone Moncalieri. This acclaimed work delves into family, loss, and immigrant identity, tracing Banushi’s journey from Greece to Albania in search of connection and closure. Combining neon-lit symbolism, evocative visuals, and live vocal improvisations by Savina Yannatou, the performance weaves an intimate tapestry of memory and self-discovery.
Both productions are cornerstones of Turin's vibrant theatre scene, celebrating timeless narratives and innovative artistry.
