MADE ILVA is an original script based on real-life testimonies and poems from the workers at the ILVA steel plant in Taranto. A masterpiece of physical theatre, exploring the impact of the biggest steelworks of Europe on the environment and surrounding population. The performance is a perfect combination of extreme physical actions, sounds that become obsessive rhythms, original music, vocals and video projections. An emotional and poetic exploration of the alienation and oppression of a human body reduced to an artificial machine.
