Evenement georganiseerd door derden. Le Cinque Rose di Jennifer – Korego Theatre Amsterdam

The Korego Theater Group Amsterdam is proud to present to the Dutch public “Jennifer’s Five Roses” directed by Carmelinda Gentile, a work that closes Korego productions before the summer break.

“Jennifer’s Five Roses” is a theatrical work written by the Neapolitan playwright Annibale Ruccello. Represented for the first time in 1980, it is the debut work of the then twenty-four-year-old author, who unfortunately died prematurely.

Jennifer is a melancholy, sensitive and romantic transvestite who lives in a studio apartment in Naples. He does not seem worried by the serial killer who is reaping victims in his neighborhood.

He is waiting for a phone call from Franco, an engineer with whom he has started a liaison some time before; in the meantime, he continues to dedicate songs to him on the radio.

Unfortunately it is very difficult to understand when (and if) Franco will call: Jennifer’s phone, due to a telephone error, seems to intercept all the calls of the neighborhood.

The theater critic Baffi lucidly describes the work of Ruccello:

“Truths and confused dreams in the lucid tale of those who no longer have space and words to” wait ” for an arrival that can warm the heart. Jennifer and the wrong phone calls in obsessive repetition. Jennifer and the incursions of a neighbor who creates a fierce nightmare. Jennifer and the discovery of a split that cannot be settled. Jennifer: drama and irony at the tip of the pen, the fierce writing of Annibale Ruccello, capable of feeding the many actors who loved this character and succeeded in giving Jennifer a variety of bodies, anxieties and psychologies, up to make it a great classic character”.
