The Holy Jester Francis

Ugo Dighero, a brilliant interpreter of the Italian stage, brings to life Dario Fo's masterpiece about Saint Francis of Assisi, directed by Giorgio Gallione. With physical and linguistic games worthy of a true jester, the performance tells the story of the Saint who called himself "God's Jester," alternating between sweetness, lightness and sharp satire. A tribute to the Nobel Prize winner in theater who, now more than ever, makes the Franciscan values of poverty, peace and respect for nature resonate in a world tormented by inequalities and conflicts.
