NOME DA PREZIOSA: ALCRA
A scenic sharing from Armande sono io! by Carla Lonzi
Created and performed by Fiorenza Menni and Andrea Mochi Sismondi

Nome da preziosa: Alcra is the first movement of the dyptich that Ateliersi dedicates to Carla Lonzi, composed of the performances Armande sono io! (2025) and Taci, anzi parla (2026).

The work opens the creative process to the public around Lonzi’s final research, focused on the movement of the Précieuses, which developed in 17th-century France.
Lonzi encountered the experience of the Précieuses through Molière’s Les Précieuses ridicules and Les Femmes Savantes, recognizing in them a fundamental reference for feminist thought.

Convinced that theatre reflects real situations, Lonzi searched within the theatrical experience for a form of relationship that she herself witnessed in direct experience whenever “certain privileges are no longer granted to men.”

The sharing of materials includes moments of active exchange with the audience, aspiring to create a free, sensitive, and conscious dialogic space.
