Abracadabra

On Thursday, January 29th at the Teatro Dino Buzzati, the theatrical performance Abracadabra will take place, as part of the "Giovedì giovani" theater series.

Abracadabra is the new, surprising creation of Babilonia Teatri, a journey suspended between reality and illusion that takes us where words are not enough. On stage, a true magician, an actress, and the directors themselves intertwine languages and visions, making magic the beating heart of a story that addresses the most universal themes: life, time, the end.
It is not just about tricks, but rather an experience that upends the rules, capable of lightening what seems insurmountable. Magic becomes a lens through which to view the world, a tool to open new perspectives, unexpected possibilities, spaces that surprise us.

Abracadabra alternates between tragic and ironic registers, grotesque and poetic, cynical and metaphysical, composing a mosaic of emotions that does not demand order but abandonment. It is a journey that seduces and destabilizes, that enchants and questions, reminding us that the greatest spell may perhaps be the very disappearance evoked through the art of magic. A flow of emotions and thoughts that intertwine and chase one another. It is not simple, and perhaps not even correct, to impose order.
