The Piccola Orchestra Pasolini is a group of actors and musicians, united by the passion for the figure and the works of Pier Paolo Pasolini, an intellectual and revolutionary artist, who was determined to communicate, confront and spread his ideas everywhere and with anyone. A transversal phenomenon that touched both the academic environment and the farmers of southern Italy in the 60s and beyond, Pasolini was capable of crossing generational, political, temporal barriers. To commemorate the highlights of Pasolini's life and career - as poet, director, author, playwriter and much more - Teatro Nucleo chooses to celebrate his ardor, passion and love with a musical cabaret, a concert-show in which moments of striking poetic force and ironic premonitions alternate, stornelli from Roman taverns, square glasses and black loafers, accompained by the more or less known soundracks of the films and music by PPP.
The lyrics and music are freely ispired by some of Pasolini's most significant works in terms of direct audience involvement: Comizi d'Amore, the songs written for Laura Betti and Gabriella Ferri, the poems written throughout his whole life.
