An opera without singers. The wonderful setting of the small castle at the Monticolo Lake in South Tyrol. A live streaming that repurposed elements of reality shows à la Big Brother. 11 guests that meet for a dinner inspired by La Cucina Futuristaby Marinetti & Fillìa. A sportswoman, a philosopher, an astrophysicist, a medical doctor, a singer, a designer, are led by the composer Luciano Chessa, who will accompany them throughout a journey, that touches upon meditation, storytelling, folkloric-ritual art, body art, Medieval mysteries, peep shows and much more… the group will undergo a two-days fasting that will culminate with a multisensorial Cena Oltranzista (extremist dinner). The final dinner is the only section of the opera in which a live audience is allowed to enter the castle.
