Parassiti: Commedia in tre atti

A bustling middle‑class household becomes the stage for a lively social sketch, where each family member seems to subsist on the generosity of the others. When a well‑meaning relative arrives with grand plans, the household’s hidden habits surface, turning polite conversation into a cascade of witty misunderstandings. The first act sets up a colourful cast whose habits and pretensions clash in a rhythm that feels both familiar and sharply observed.

The comedy relies on sharp dialogue and keen psychological insight, exposing the ways people can cling to one another like harmless parasites while still caring for each other’s reputation. Antona‑Traversi’s gentle satire shines through bright repartee and an elegant pacing that keeps the humor buoyant. Listeners will enjoy a deftly crafted portrait of everyday vanity, where the humor is rooted in character rather than far‑codded antics, inviting both laughter and a quiet reflection on the small dependencies that bind us.
