INTRODUCTION TO THE 40TH EDITION
Festival Pergine Spettacolo Aperto turns 40 years old. It's time to think about groving older and the opportunity to provocatively deal with a critical issue: life as passage, birth and death as pivotal moments. International performers, shows, installations, scientific studies, workshops and well-being itineraries are part of a rich calendar of events. Nine days dedicated to those who say..."I WANNA BE FOREVER YOUNG"!

Paternity Blues (2015-07-10) by Romano MagronePergine Spettacolo Aperto
Contemporary western society is seduced by the myth of eternal youth, looking for a way to suspend time like the limitless life of Dorian Grey. The beginning and the end are considered taboos.
Throat (2015-07-09) by Romano MagronePergine Spettacolo Aperto
The 40th festival wants to reverse the process and focus on the thresholds of life-two moments as important as suggestive. Nine days dedicated to shows, installations, workshop and much more.
