The Single Guarantee Committee for Equal Opportunity, as an internal body of the Municipality of Figline and Incisa Valdarno and in collaboration with the Municipality itself and the SPI CGIL Lega Valdarno Fiorentino, proposes annual initiatives to raise awareness for World Day Against Violence Against Women and Women's Day. This year, in addition to the Nov. 25 event, a performance has been organized at the Salesian Theater in Figline (at 18 Via Roma) on Thursday, Nov. 28. At 9 p.m., a concert-reading entitled "Female Article - Duo - Illogical Analysis of the Printed Paper," built around the female universe, will begin.
Under the direction of Leonardo Ciardi, the duo composed of theater, film and television actress Daniela Morozzi and saxophonist Stefano Cocco Cantini, known in the jazz world internationally, will present a reading where there is no singing but reading and where music never takes on a background function: both languages will be in continuous dialogue with each other and thus stories will be told, portraits painted and news facts presented. The words of different men and women, such as Consuelo Velazquez of "Besame Mucho," Roberto Saviano, Miriam Makeba, Italo Calvino (and many others), will be borrowed to compose the image of women beyond time and ideologies. The choice of journalistic writing will elicit a great response in terms of emotional participation from the audience.
Admission is free, and proceeds from the evening will go to the Artemisia Centro Antiviolenza Associations of Florence and the LILITH Women's Aid Center of Empoli.
