Lento e Violento means “slow and violent” in Italian.
As enigmatic as its title, Lento e Violento leaves the audience immersed in an atmosphere of mystery — a gentle provocation of curiosity, an invitation to explore the fantastical.
Its haunting ambience is crafted through elements of circus, dance, music, and magical illusions, all carried by the captivating performer Valentina Cortese on stage.
At once logical and absurd, Lento e Violento is composed as a multi-layered riddle that plays with repetition, disruption, and manipulation. It is a work where form is as significant as content, and where the audience is seduced by the performance’s singular, enchanting universe.
