The storytelling revolves around the words that make us travel and the journey that began in the distant territory of our childhood, with those stories that, under the spell of «once upon a time…», opened windows to magic, fear, and pleasure.

This unfinished piece by Pirandello immerses us in an almost unknown world of the Nobel Prize winner in his dramatic works. Through a fable of magical realism, Pirandello proposes the arrival of a company of actors to a place between reality and fantasy, life and death, dream and wakefulness.
