The remarkable cast of Teatro the Ribalta, which hosts actors with disabilities offers us a show of rare emotion. The bet: staging theories of eugenics in Nazi Germany. Antonio Vigano chose this strong and disturbing topic to express its vision of a theater of human beings more than representation.

In this dark period of history, the actors with disabilities may have been victims of the extermination project. In a theatrical device that puts us closer to the actors, we become the witnesses of this drama where any imperfection is considered to be a crime.

Other actors embody the professors and theorists who created the concept of a healthy and pure race. They appear monstrous face a touching humanity. Little by little, the "weak" transfigured by the power of poetry and dance. And we enter into the experience and emerge transformed.

A brave piece that raises the question of responsibility in the face of life and human beings by sharing a moment of pure emotion. Upsetting.
