information
You are welcome. Call me by name, because here we call God by name too. My father wanted me to be a shepherd, so I spent my childhood among sheep, dogs and only one book.
At night I carved alabaster in a stable where other shepherds rested, yelling at me to go to sleep. I sculpted by the light of a piece of cloth dipped in oil and when my nostrils filled with dust and smoke, I went out to breathe under the stars.
One night I asked the sky never to be satisfied with my art and my wish came true. Many of you ask me how the idea of the theatre was born … it is written that “the Spirit, like the wind, blows where it wants”.
It blew here, where I took the sheep to pasture at the end of the nineteenth century and, at sunset, I saw them ruminating in peace several times, still as in the stillness of stone.
I felt that holy spirits dwelt in this place, and so I decided to build a stone theatre here. Many years later, I learned that the Andromeda Constellation Galaxy M31 will collide with our Galaxy in about four and a half billion years and I began to carve a sacred enclosure to the 108 visible stars of the Andromeda Constellation.
Now listen to the silence, sit on a star and look at the earth. This is not a theatre … but a spaceship that is traveling to the Andromeda Galaxy.
