People-specific creation for girls under 18 and their community

With her raw, direct and minimal aesthetic directing style, Eleonora Pippo creates a pure and sincere story, a universal synthesis of that terrible and often infinite experience of life we call adolescence.

Le ragazzine stanno perdendo il controllo is the new people-specific theatrical project conceived and directed by Eleonora Pippo, which investigates the feelings of growth and identity.
Inspired by the comic teen drama by Ratigher of the same title, which tells the story of the friendship of two young girls with the bizarre passion for medical analysis, the project consists of, in each city, the creation of a group of teenage girls, which works together with the director to devise an original performance. Each show is therefore unique, different and unpredictable, strongly linked to the background of the young performers and the community to which they belong, in this case that of Pergine. 

The underlying theme of the graphic novel inspired by the performance is intertwined with the experience of the girls on stage; short interviews, songs, letters written for their “future self”, delineate a parallel narration that skilfully combines reality and fiction.
