Silvia Calderoni and Ilenia Caleo's 'temporale {a lesbian tragedy}' to premiere at Angelo Mai in Rome, April 2026

Silvia Calderoni and Ilenia Caleo will present their performance piece, 'temporale {a lesbian tragedy}', at Angelo Mai in Rome on April 17, 18, and 19, 2026. This work explores the darker aspects of everyday life through a unique lens and first debuted last summer at the Santarcangelo Festival, later touring Italy with a stop at Arena del Sole in Bologna. The cast features Calderoni, Caleo, Francesca Turrini, and Ondina Quadri, with sound by Martina Ruggeri. Drawing from Goethe's writings and Caleo's translated works, the production’s homey atmosphere taps into internet horror and critiques political chaos, inspired by Turner's sublime artistry and David Lynch's visuals. Residencies occurred at various prominent venues, with co-production support from VIELNURVIEL, Motus Vague, and others. Elisa Bartolucci handled coordination, backed by a dedicated team.
