Description
Last session of these Season In situ, on the stage of L'autora.
TIn The Writer, a young playwright confronts an established director. She says that the theater has become comfortable, commercial, and macho. He says it is more complicated. That structure is needed. That logic is needed. That tickets must be sold. But, deep down, they are not arguing about theater. They are arguing about who has the right to define reality. And this is the first great difficulty of women who want to write. Before their own room, women need authority: need to believe that what they have to say deserves to be said. Why is it the male voice that is considered universal? Why can a woman never forget that she is a body that awakens desire? Why can male rage be heroic and female rage become exaggerated? Why does society applaud male ambition and suspicions of female one? Women who want to write must be prepared to conquer authority, to negotiate with his body, manage anger, resist the domestication of the market and sustain his ambition without asking for forgiveness.
