Last night, the play “Ciao Amore” by Jérôme L’Hotsky was presented to a new audience and performed by Serena Reinaldi and Christophe Alévêque, with direction by Philippe Sohier.
Some passages that the audience particularly appreciated:
Her: “I think I love you less…”
Him: “Is there someone else?!”
No, she has no one. In a ridiculous, often absurd, sometimes violent game, they will study each other, insult each other, touch, leave, come back, finally understand each other and lose one another the next moment.
How to love each other like on the first day in this world that moves faster than our feelings? Why do we love, why do we stop loving? But above all, how to love in a society where individualism reigns supreme and personal fulfillment has become the Holy Grail?
A modern-day Adam and Eve, she a feminist and Italian, he ambitious and lost in the maze of daily life, yet still forming “a couple.”
The story of a love, a real one, where we hurt each other to feel better. They will make us laugh, then cry, then laugh again, those who are so far from us, and yet so close.
