Napoli.

We play the first show in Chiaiano in the teathre of a school, the audience is composed from 90kids from 8-9 years all from the periferic neighborhood of Chiaiano.

We were a bit scared the kids would want to be noticed and wouldn’t let us play normally,instead so far they have been our best audience; they were quiet and attentive and they also answered when needed.

After we talked with the organization, and they said Chiaiano is one of the most difficult blocks of Naples, it is really close to Scampia(wich became  famous after the book Gomorra) but doesn’t have the same attention by the media or by association that works in the social.

Most of the kids live in difficult families, often the father is not present (for various reason) and after the school they don’t have activities they can take part in.

So they were really thankful, that we came there to use the theatre(renewed in november with european fonds) and give a show to the kids.

In the afternoon we played in a day center in the central part of napoli, close to Piazza Carlo III.

Here the audience was composed by various groups;

Kids and adolescents from Naples itself,asylum seekers staying in a center close by, not all of them over 18 years old.This time the audience was a little more difficult to deal with, but we managed to finish the show nicely and the asylum seekers insested to help us bring our stuff back to the camper.

Long day in Naples, but good feling at the end.
