In the evening, Teatro Stabile di Genova presents the theatrical performance “A as in Alice” scheduled for 9:30 PM at Piazza Castello Borelli.
A as in Alice is a performance for girls, boys and families, freely inspired by the universe of Lewis Carroll’s famous tale, but seen with new eyes: through the language of contemporary theatre and the sensibility of children’s theatre. It is a poetic and ironic journey into fantasy, growth, identity and the courage to look at the world from different angles. A story that entertains and moves, capable of speaking to the youngest but also to adults, who find in Alice the memory of a world they have never truly stopped imagining. Written and directed by Elena Dragonetti, artistic consultant for the children’s theatre of the National Theatre, the performance is designed for an audience of all ages, from 6 years old, and features a journey through fantasy, dreams and eccentric characters performed by Diego Francesco Cerami, Gaia De Giorgi, Alvi Dema, Luciana Eni, Matteo Ippolito and Giacomo Nicolò Pinna, young actors graduated from the National Theatre Acting School. Production by the National Theatre of Genoa.
The Children’s Space series will continue Wednesday 22 July at 4:00 PM at the Giardino Stefano Pittaluga with Sun, Sea, Fun! Reading and crafts workshop for children from 3 years old.

An ironic reflection on success, missed opportunities and personal choices, told from the perspective of someone who, after many years of career, continues to identify with those who followed a different path from the more celebrated one.
