“Fra’ San Francesco, the Medieval Superstar” in Gonzaga

The Teatro Comunale in Gonzaga presents “Fra’ San Francesco, the Medieval Superstar,” a play directed by Francesco Ferdinando Brandi in co-production with Teatro Carcano, Mismaonda, and Viola Produzioni.

Why does Saint Francis fascinate so many, even those distant from faith? Perhaps because he was an artist in the fullest sense of the word. His sermons were mad and visionary performances, a playful dialogue with nature. Francis improvised in French, quoting epic passages and reinterpreting them, using his body and even suffering to communicate.

From the sermon to the pigs to the Canticle of the Creatures, no one has been able to tell the story of God with Francis’s creativity.

The event will be held at the Teatro Comunale in Gonzaga. For more information, you can contact the Teatro Office at the former Convent of Santa Maria (viale Fiera Millenaria, 64) at 0376/526337 or by email at [email protected]
