a dinner with Pirandello
13th July 2019
An unforgettable and exclusive EXPERIENCE on the occasion of the 152th year of the birth of Luigi Pirandello.
The re-enactment of a Girgenti diner from the beginning of the twentieth century, laden with meat and fish preparations, with sweet and sour variations, but also with poor dishes made with vegetables from the country and foods of other times, which have now become impossible to find gourmet refinements.
Diners will be the guests together with Luigi Pirandello, played by the theatrical actor (Pippo Alvaro), with an impressive resemblance to the famous Nobel Prize.
By his side 3 women: housekeeper Nina (Giusy Alaimo), Marta Abba, the inspiring muse (played Susy Indelicato) and his wife, Antonietta, (the talented Giovanna Messina, also the author of the piece).
