Gigi Mardegan "La ballata del barcaro"

For the seventh edition of the summer review "Narr.azioni" in Mozzecane, the show by Gigi Mardegan The Ballad of the Boatman will be presented. A brilliant comedy dedicated to the figure of the boatman, the ancient custodian of the waterways of Veneto and storyteller suspended between land and river. Gigi Mardegan brings to life the epic of the last ferrymen, rough and poetic souls overwhelmed by the boom of the 1960s, when highways and progress erased a world made of barges, landings, fog, and onboard memories. Between memories, popular legends, and irresistible scenes of comedy, the boat becomes a floating stage, and the sail transforms into an imaginary backdrop, capable of collecting stories of toil, roots, adventures, and melancholy.

An intense and amusing tribute to an amphibious Veneto, still crossed by the voice of its rivers and the ancient words of those who knew how to navigate its soul.

Advance tickets are available on Boxol, Vivaticket, and TicketOne.
