New appointment with the Garibaldi Theater's drama season this weekend. On Saturday, March 10 and Sunday, March 11, Massimo Popolizio will arrive in Figline with Michael Frayn's "Copenhagen," along with Umberto Orsini and Giuliana Lojodice directed by Mauro Avogadro.
The story is set in a place reminiscent of a physics classroom, where, immersed in an almost unreal atmosphere, three people, two men and a woman, talk about things that happened in the distant past, things that happened long ago, when all three were still alive. They are Niels Bohr (Orsini), his wife Margrethe (Lojodice) and Werner Heisenberg (Popolizio). Their attempt is to clarify what happened back in 1941 in Copenhagen when suddenly the German physicist Heisenberg visited his master Bohr in Nazi-occupied Denmark. Both involved in scientific research, but on opposite sides, probably close to a goal that would lead to the atomic bomb, the two scientists had a conversation in the garden of Bohr's house, the subject of that conversation to this day remains a mystery and to solve it History has advanced a variety of hypotheses.
Massimo Popolizio is in his first appearance at the Garibaldi, while Umberto Orsini in 1995/96 starred in "Otello" and Giuliana Lojodice, alongside Aroldo Tieri, in "Esuli" in the 1987/88 season.
The performance will be held on Saturday, March 10, at 9 p.m. (Season Ticket Shift "A") and Sunday, March 11, at 4:30 p.m. (Season Ticket Shift "C").
Tickets can be purchased from Wednesday, March 7, directly at the Garibaldi box office (Piazza Serristori; 9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. and 4-7 p.m.) while they are already available at UniCoop Florence stores' information boxes or online through the BoxOffice circuit at: https://www.boxol.it/it/advertise/teatro-garibaldi/187332
