The world-famous clown in an out of season Carnival
by Silvia Francia:

…A small reminder of the emblem of that art to which the Pugliese artist Colucci has dedicated his life, so much to become an international master, eulogized by the public and critics of the world’s stages…

…Colucci says: “Some time ago, Paolo Stratta, who heads the Cirko Vertigo contacted me to offer me to stage a show with the kids at her school for the festival: it is tradition for some time, which is to guide young artists by an artist / director of international renown, such as, in recent years, Leo Bassi and Jerome Thomas. I accepted with enthusiasm, thinking that the lack of “stiffness” of a cast composed of young talent would have favored experimentation. And then, I confess, the idea to return to Turin attracted me, a city that was very significant for me since the time in which I took to Teatro Carignano, with extraordinary success, the show “Slava’s Snow Show”, a tribute to my teacher Slava Polunin. ”
