DEBUT AUGUST 31st 2019

A monologue that brings Simone Weil's story "alive" through her readings, her travels, but above all her great questions about the world and the intimate need to know and understand it.
We will approach the great thinker of the last century through the meetings that lead Simone Weil to be close to those who are different: her becoming a worker, a fighter and a teacher to understand, to help, to reveal the truth coinceived as the only way to feel strong and united.
An invitation to young viewers to activate their thoughts, not to give in to homologation, to express their uniqueness, to claim the right to respect and dignity.
A dramaturgy that captures the public till the end, in search of a meaning, an answer, a salvation, but above all a tribute to a fragile figure in the body, but immortal in ideas, today more than ever crucial.

"«Why? What?» It wasn't easy to answer, but I tried. Seriously. I never tell stories to children, I never treat them as little. They don't need lies. They'll find them later in life. They deserve instead all the truth and depth we are capable of... "

Since time immemorial, on a hilltop surrounded only by trees and clouds, lived a stone. Neither large nor small, grey and brown, it shone golden in the sunlight and silvery under the moon. Like all minerals, our stone was solid, but also resilient. When an animal approached it, the stone would quiver and change colour. At times it even changed size and form. The stone loved other living beings and especially playing with them. It gave advice, in its own little way, because it didn’t have a voice.
One day a young boy came by. He was alone. No-one knew his name because he did not speak. He had been touched by war. And fatigue.
He sat by the stone and began to stroke it. He huddled up to her and fell asleep…
