Nilde mia

It is "dedicated to all women who live on this earth and who still believe that the world must and can be changed" the show 'Nilde mia. Unauthorised autobiography of a statue', staged at the Paisiello Theatre. Directed by Paola Leone, the play was created as part of "Le donne si raccontano... modera Nilde Iotti", a project to promote women's rights, realised with women, which involved a group of students, prisoners and political activists. The theatrical work, which begins with the statue of Nilde abandoned who knows where, which awakens with the voices of a procession of women chanting feminist slogans, investigates the difficulties inherent in being a woman and in playing a public and institutional role in a society that is still too sexist and, at the same time, pays homage to Nilde Iotti's politics, her political practice and the role that women have played in the history of our country.

The performance is staged in view of the International Day against Violence against Women, which falls on 25 November, by the Lecce Municipality's Equal Opportunities and Culture Department, in collaboration with the Open Theatre Centre Io ci provo.
