Even if you usually go to the theater to see the fiction on stage, last night everything took place in the most true and authentic way that could be, from the voice to the words of the singer -songwriter Marianne Mirage.

After the stages of Rome, Cesena, Bologna, Turin, Biella, the artist returned to his city by adoption, Milan, for a live from vintage flavor But with so current content. On stage with her Marquis keyboards, synthesizers and percussionGiovanni Donada on bass, Pietro Gregori on drums e Martina Campi to the wind. A group united in a refined and intimate sound that recreates the retro and very evocative atmospheres of theater in the studio live.

Evolution is beauty

Released on January 17 (on Friday, yes), Theater It is now in theaters and talks about truth, pain and awareness. In short, he speaks to us of the true life, Which can be like a theatrical work made of ups and downs, twists and changes, which in a path, where everyone has their own, lead to growth.

On the scene he enters the dressed in white with a huge wig from whom keys, candles, caskets, flowers and many curls emerge that are not a whims but ideas and travels in his imaginary world a little dreamlike and a little melancholy, but so true.

Close your eyes (and listen)

Authentic soundsa little dirty and so beautiful, Poetry and music fused in a True and intimate story. The Setlist contains all theater and even more: from the hidden of Sky and the peaks of Two souls, passing through the picture of more concrete situations such as the colorful color Without laughing And You kiss. The inserted pieces only guitar and rumor of Marianne are touching, The song of the vampire, Venus And then again the success signed by Bianconi de The song hurts, They are a crescendo of emotions and sounds.

On the song that opens the album Close your eyes, The most hidden ropes of the hearts of the room are caressed by the depth of words of the piece: a Hymn to freedom And to the independence that every woman would like to be able to sing by returning home alone in the evening, really thinking that “there is no one who can hurt you”.

The themes are universal, such as the courage to be a woman, the connections with nature, the failures, the mistakes, the search for an inner awareness, but it is how and who performs this story that makes the difference: each song tells Marianne's personal experience with its intensity and deep emotions.

Inside storm, outside the party

The concert also becomes a party on the tail of the set, with the applause that become battis of hands at the battery pace, a change of dress by Marianne with a burlesque tone and the entrance of the open artist Lumierofor a piece two with a retro flavor and a little swing, a Slow appointment Very soft and pure.

Then slide to the grand finale with a reinterpretation of the classic deaf-vitti of But 'ndo hawaiiwhich concludes the live of Theater With light -heartedness and cheerful nostalgia for a historical period not so far in time but that in fact there is no longer.

Just as it happens for many occasions that life offers us and that in Marianne Mirage's songs return to remember us the importance of the here and nowas well as of the far and of the altroke: “Of a world that turns at different speeds, the moon just illuminates you” there is always time to hear “a shiver behind your back, takes you up there, in the blue” and live well and in any case.
