Awarded the Franco Quadri mention (Riccione Prize 2023), È solo un lungo tramonto (It's just a long sunset) is an innovative theatrical work realised through the mechanical reiteration and disintegration of dialogues between the author and his father, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease. By dictating those conversations on the computer and redacting the transcripts, the text absorbed the same losses and repetitions that the father's memory returned, creating an intense relationship with time and forgetfulness. The result is a theatrical hauntology in which the past hovers over an off-axis present. There are no tensions, no twists, there is, after all, no dram-ma. It is just a slow disintegration. It is just one long sunset.
