Presented and realized by the Fondazione Esperienze di Cultura Metropolitana di Settimo Torinese in collaboration with Faber Teater and Scuola di Robotica, The theatrical performance "Umano ma non troppo" is the final result of the project Ogeima Story, produced with the support of the Compagnia di San Paolo under "NOW! Contemporary languages innovative productions".
Central themes of the theatrical path are the relationship between men and technologies, between men and machines, the expectations of human beings in respect to the progressive spread of robots and the ethical implications connected to it. To narrate the complexity of this relationship, human beings and robots will be present on the scene in a mutual relationship of dialogue and sharing of languages, spaces and communicative codes.
The screenplay was built thanks to participatory experiences that involved young people and adults in reflection and research on the perceived impacts of the spread of emerging technologies in everyday life in terms of both risks and opportunities. The performance will be staged by the Piedmontese theatre company Faber Teater directed by Gianni Bissaca and images and films by Diego Diaz Morales. Starring Sebastiano Amadio, Marco Andorno and Nao, the small humanoid robot programmed by Andrea Germinario, the show will be attended by Stefania Operto. Robots and machines will be made available by the Robotics School.
The show will be represented between Piedmont, Liguria and Friuli Venezia Giulia. The first replica was held in Settimo Torinese on March 9 at 21.00 at the Teatro Garybaldi, followed by the show on March 24 at 20.30 at the Teatro Archivolto in Genoa. The Revoltella Theatre of Trieste will be the stage for the final show that will be held on April 13th at 18.00. All shows are free and free admission.
