Twenty years of life in the country. Ten years of theatre. Owners-occupiers. Show business workers. A red line that ties everything: the earth. Particularly a place; the magic conge of Ariette, that collects and generate our shows as the days of our life, my life and the life of Paola.



Days of wheat and bread, of joys and mournigns, of agriculture,of art and politics.
Days, months , seasons, years. Animals, plants, people and shows. That pass, in the linear direction of the historical time, crossing the magical dimension of the egg-shaped time, the one of the earth and of its eternal return, of the seedings and of the harvests.
They proposed us a circus tent and we accepted. We thought about a tale, a tale in a circus tent, private that becomes public, political, life that becomes a show, the tragic mixed up with the ridiculous.
Another show, once again, until we will be able to renounce and we will silently say our earth prayer.


Le Ariette

Teatro delle Ariette

Teatro delle Ariette is a cultural association, studying, producing and promoting theatre. It was born in 1996 and since then it has created, performed and/or promoted events in houses, bakeries, hospitals, schools, streets, piazzas and in fields, but also in important national and international theatres. The association is named after the name of the farm where everything started: The “Ariette” (Castello di Serravalle in the Bologna municipality), and where we (Berselli and Pasquini) have been living since 1989, leading the farm. In 1999, in the middle of the fields, we autonomously built the “Deposito Attrezzi” (=the warehouse) literally with our hands, intended as a country building for theatre. We are authors, builders and producers of our theatre in every sense. Teatro delle Ariette is not only a company of players, but something more: an experience, a daily practice to search a place where art, life and work live together and are the same thing.
Our theatre is a “land theatre”, made by hand, experienced through the body. Our search is a journey trough what is human, a constant work to open the door that brings inside: in the invisible theatre of the heart. Where our theatre is.
