Spettacolo teatrale "Toccando il vuoto"
Show "Dalser, La Mussolina" by MULTIVERSOteatro in collaboration with CSC and PACTA
It is the night between July 15 and 16, 1935. Ida Dalser, just escaped from the asylum, alone at night, travels the road from Pergine Valsugana to her sister's house in Sopramonte, a small neighborhood of Trento. Like in a dark fairy tale, she crosses a forest and weaves her grand finale: at her sister's house, she will find her love, Benito Mussolini, who will save her. That's how stories are supposed to end. In a stream of consciousness that flows without pauses, she retraces her life and imagines a parallel reality, very far from the one that will lead her to death a couple of years later.
Ida Dalser, considered Mussolini's first wife, was committed to an asylum by him – and by the regime – where she would die in 1937. How could a successful woman like her, who comes from Sopramonte to open an important beauty center in Milan, sell everything for love of Mussolini? What does she see in this man to sacrifice everything for him, and why do many women have the desire to find a man in whom to annihilate themselves? Where does this desire come from?
The story with Dalser is emblematic of Mussolini's relationship with women: for Mirella Serri (Mussolini did a lot for women), it is in fascism that we find the root of that state sexism that still continues to affect us today. "Mussolini had developed an antifeminine hostility that he expressed through laws and prohibitions. The gender stereotypes imposed as a lifestyle during the Ventennio affirmed themselves as difficult models to eradicate, destined to mark the history of the twentieth century and even influence the 2000s."
