Sabbia is a one act play in which Eleonora Danco, cult author of the Italian ‘angry’ theatre, (critics have compared her to Pasolini and Sarah Kane), brings to the stage a series of monologues created from her interviews with gays and lesbians. Stories of repressed sexuality, double lives, difficult relationships with parents, adolescence and bodies.
With a direct and crude language, Sabbia tells of denied desire, alienated bodies, dreams and lies, fears and jealousy, of a desperate desire for social acceptance. Through her writing and her stories, the life and affairs, told with great talent, reach an existential existence, suspended between a pungent language which retells crude experiences and a candid beauty that makes them humanly touching.
On stage Eleanor gesticulates wildly, wrestles with herself, generously loaning her body to the protagonists and their stories. A tough challenge for a single actress on stage, where the only scenery is a mound of sand, which as a carpet, becomes a second skin.
