Teatro La Ribalta
COMPANY
The Ribalta theatre – Kunst der Vielfalt is a professional theatre company made up of men and women with and without disabilities. Their actors do not hide their conditions in any way, rather they base them on the search for an artistic identity.
The "distinctive" capabilities of all the actors and dancers at the Ribalta Theatre - Kunst der Vielfalt do not intervene to "put in place" the communication, but establish the nature of communication itself, and its possibilities and truth. There is no content nor container, because the “organicness” of the presence is such that blends body and mind, intention and action, technical resources and personal content. These actors and actresses do not ask for indulgence and invite us to keep the emotion away; They do not claim any therapeutic action in their act, because therapy is forced to stop at the threshold of a mystery that belongs to the inexplicableness of art.
