CLOUDS - The extraordinary venture of Colombano Romean and other stories of water and ice
a show by and with Bobo Nigrone

Clouds is a show that tells true stories and a fairy tale about nature and its relationship with man. It narrates landscapes and transitions, like clouds.
The fairy tale Flake of Cloud, a powerful metaphor of the revolutionary Subcomandante Marcos, is a story that can speak to young people about the regenerating force of nature. The apparent fragility of Flake of Cloud hides different, unrecognized qualities, and allows overcoming the obstacles that one may encounter in daily life.
The story of the Pertus of Colombano Romean, five hundred years after the beginning of that incredible adventure, tells the new generations that a man can achieve extraordinary feats even without superpowers, relying only on his willpower and ingenuity. Thus did the stonemason from Chiomonte, who dug, in seven years, a tunnel almost five hundred meters long and about one meter wide, alone, with his chisel, to channel the waters of a stream from one side of the mountain to the other.

Event as part of the COLOMBANO 500 series, for the 500 years of the Pertus of Colombano Romean.
