This reversal lies at the heart of the creation of <strong>Il Vangelo di Cassandra<\/strong> (The Gospel according to Cassandra), which unfolds as an immersive experience where poetic language and movement merge to explore universal, human, and political themes of transformation and desire.<\/p>\n<p>Through circular sequences seeking new gravitational planes and ancient gestural formulas, Gloria Dorliguzzo and Gemma Hansson Carbone pursue a physicality that oscillates between disbalances and chiasms, expressing the tension between genesis and destruction, between eros and negation, between past and present time. Cassandra\u2019s movements become \u201clogos,\u201d reflecting Dimitriadis\u2019 semantic revolution that transforms her prophetic, misunderstood, and incomprehensible voice into a divine, creative, and erotic verb.<\/p>\n<p>The scenography, curated by Alessandro Panzavolta and Francesco Tedde, is designed as an open and immersive structure, where Cassandra and the audience become inhabitants of a magical place \u2013 the World of Now \u2013 where the sun\u2019s orbits write a new alphabet on broken mirrors, where the skeleton of the past becomes a new snakeskin, and where myth and visions of the future converge, celebrating the power of creation and freedom.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h6><strong>Gemma Hansson Carbone<\/strong> is an Italian-Swedish performer and director who has developed her artistic training between Italy, Sweden and the UK.
