Two performances, one journey through myth and identity
Storie del Castello (Aci Castello)
This show brings centuries of history, legends and memories tied to the Norman Castle to the stage. Local voices, theatrical storytelling and live music come together to celebrate the spirit of the site.

Approdi – Le donne di Ulisse (Aci Trezza)
An original reinterpretation of the Odyssey through the eyes of its female characters. Circe, Calypso and Nausicaa narrate their version of Ulysses in a unique setting: the actresses perform on small boats moored in the sea, while the audience watches from the shore, creating a perfect blend of theatre and natural landscape.

SPONDE: a bridge between art and territory
SPONDE was created to enhance the cultural and natural heritage of eastern Sicily, encouraging deep reflection on the identity and shared roots of these places. A project that turns theatre into a connection between past and present, tradition and innovation, land and sea.
