Maschera di Pulcinella

PULECENELL A.
A black mask twisted into a grimace revealing laughter and tears, a white dress with a thousand folds on a body bent in theatrical movements.
Where comedy meets tragedy, from the depths and interpretation of a profound Neapolitan essence, the character of Pulcinella is born.
Part jester and part minstrel, Pulcinella is the interpreter who embodies all the characteristics that, over the centuries, have contributed to shaping the soul and feelings of the Neapolitan people.
Ventrella has long told the story of this people through the artistic reproduction of its icons. And it is in this spirit that Pulecenella was born. If Pulcinella with his mask mixes laughter and tears, Pulecenella goes beyond that, having now become a symbol. He rises in a hieratic immobility, his body stretches upward in a mystical pose, his artistically modeled face exudes seriousness and composed silence, his dress reflects the historic and intricate labyrinth. Naples is once again, artistically, on stage.
