High Heels from the Big Boot
A playful tribute to Italian women.
Two grandchildren find a mysterious laptop and an AI that begins to reveal, with irony and precision, their grandmother's secrets. From there, a chorus of extraordinary Italian women steps forward to tell their own stories.

A bright, irreverent show that pays homage to Italian women throughout history: from icons to forgotten figures, each restored in their own voice, between strength, fragility, irony and truth.
Between comic moments and intense passages, the piece weaves lightness and depth into a continuous dialogue between generations and identities. A choral story about memory, freedom, self-determination and the right to be oneself.
