Luigi pirandello and Orazio Costa: The unpublished works of the Archivio costa in the experience of the Piccolo Teatro di Roma (1948-1954)
di Lucilla Bonavita
The book, in addition to offering a contribution to the studies about Pirandello, proposes a reading of the “stage fact” through a documentary and philological route consti-tuted of unpublished material that winds within the note-books jealously guarded by the Master since 1938 until his death, and now preserved in the Costa Archive in Florence. Founder of Piccolo Teatro di Roma (1948-1954), Orazio Costa brings to the stage the plays written by Pirandello during that time: through a transcoding process of the literary texts of Six Characters in Search of an Author and Right You Are (If You Think So), we are witnessing a new dramatic writing that, while remaining philologically faithful to Pirandello’s text, increases its poetic potential.
