Greta Tommesani’s initial introduction at the Romaeuropa Festival took place in 2022 within her selection for Powered by REF. This year, she returns with CA-NI-CI-NI-CA, a sharp and ironic first study, suspended between stage writing, dramaturgy and stand-up. It immediately conquers the public with its ability to mix a lightness of gaze with a profound political reflection on labour exploitation. The director and performer returns to the festival and completes the show, as she continues to superimpose reality and fiction, cynicism and beauty, scenic representation and obsession with productivity, performativity and self-exploitation.
