The Smartest One

Theatre

The misadventures of an incorrigible wolf
Deep in the forest a big, bad wolf meets little Red Riding Hood and conjures up (after all, he is the smartest) a diabolic plan to eat her. Without further ado, he runs to her grandmother’s house...
Now this might sound like the well-known fairytale, that is, until the wolf (who really does think he is the smartest) slips on grandmama’s nightgown and nightcap and steps out of the house... and gets locked out!
The Smartest One is a happy mix of lightness and irony which makes you laugh and think. We can’t but feel sorry for this wolf who, after having presumptuously claimed “I am the strongest, the most handsome and the smartest one”, proves to be clumsy and gauche. We can all immediately identify with him and so to laugh at him is to laugh at ourselves, which makes us feel very human.
There is just one actor/dancer on stage. Thanks to Teatro Gioco Vita’s repertoire of shadow techniques and dance, we are drawn into a world where fantasy meets reality, producing a comic effect on the story being told.
