Il laboratorio del sogno. Simbologia e arte del costume teatrale
a cura di Fabiana Giacomotti
After last year's success, the project The Dream Workshop is back. Symbology and art of theatrical costume. During the three weekends of the kermesse, it will be possible to take part, upon registration, to meetings and real theatrical tailoring workshops. Guest speakers and visiting costume designers of the project will, as always, be some of the biggest names in Italian and international fashion and costume, active in both fields. Thanks to them, the audience will be involved in moments of meeting and manufacture where they will make and treat themselves to a small accessory created by the guest designers, under the guidance of the theater tailoring premiers. The project includes an exhibition of historical costumes from theopera Ariadne auf Naxos staged at Festival dei Due Mondi in 1984, displayed in the foyer of the Teatro Nuovo Gian Carlo Menotti.
The Dream Workshop is a project conceived from Fabiana Giacomotti, costume historian and editor of "Foglio della Moda," a fashion culture and industry insert of the daily newspaper "Il Foglio," which is part of the path of enhancing the theater crafts undertaken by the Spoleto Festival under the artistic direction of Monique Veaute.
