Description

The Talking Wood (Il Bosco Parlante) is a project designed for natural context like woods, path, park and villages. The performances and the narration are adapted to the places in which they are inserted offering an immersive experience where art, nature and culture meet creating a perfect synergy.

The Talking Wood (Il Bosco Parlante) connects the local resources of the territories (environmental guides, cultural operators, proloco, associations of the territory) with the artistic ones (actors, dancers, performers, musicians) building site specific paths and creating a constant interaction between art, local culture and the public.

All technical equipment used is approved; installations are setted and certified by riggers and experienced technicians. For the night replication are used battery-powered audio/lights and the audience is equipped with rechargeable headlights.

Technical indications

The talking forest starts the route in an easily accessible area.

The route, led by an environmental operator and a musician actor, can be from 1 to 6 km long. The duration, depending on the length of the route, can vary from 1 hour and 30 minutes to 3 hours and can be repeated several times a day including the evening/night time slot.

Along the way there will be 3 to 6 stages in which the artists will perform performances in the chosen places. The circus disciplines and musical compositions are proposed according to the cultural and environmental dramaturgy of the place itself.

All the technical equipment used is approved and the installations are carried out and certified by expert riggers and technicians.

The evening/night performance uses battery-operated audio/light material and the audience is provided with rechargeable front lights.

Directions for children

Children aged two to four years can travel up to two kilometres, with stops every ten/fifteen minutes.

From five to seven years of age they can walk with stops every thirty/forty minutes, from one to three hours a day, equivalent to five/seven kilometers on not particularly demanding routes.

The most “versatile” children are those aged eight to nine who can easily travel ten to twelve kilometers on tracks at variable altitudes.
