A cathode ray tube and an exploding TV game show that begins before the audience as if we were in a TV studio. Signora Agazzi, mother of Dino, wife of Councilor Agazzi, friendly SIRELLI who are friends of Mrs. Cini: they are participants in the game called So it is (if you like) . The purpose of the protagonists: to discover what relationships bind and such mysteries hiding three strange characters all dressed in black recently come to live in the country in which all observed, all whispering, all judge (morbid voyeurism and gossip that has now been translated into nell'intrusione each private event, limited in time to show). The trend of events is marked by the visits, which in turn are Mrs. Frola and Mr. Ponza, his son: the game is guessing which of them is crazy. And when he finally enters the elusive Mrs. Ponza, believed to clarify all doubts by bringing the incontrovertible truth, the facts are not explained at all. Pirandello has deliberately left the ending unresolved, implying a doubt in the viewer that is not resolved. In nearly a century of performances (the show debuted in 1917) have been given many interpretations of the role of three characters: Alessandro Averone, young director of this production of the Teatro Due of Parma, and already popular actor (include Demons Peter Stein, where he played the petty Piotr), closes revealing that it is a hoax (Castriana idea of \u200b\u200bmemory) that the three put in place against the bourgeoisie, represented in all their mediocrity through a recitation intentionally loaded (but without going to extremes of caricature).
"If a work of art survives only because we can still remove it from the fixity of its form" (Pirandello). It happens rarely attend intelligent operations on the classics: thick material for filmmakers who can not speak with their voice and use that the authors of the most brilliant of them well, the classics are cut, rewritten, betrayed, altered. Averone amazed us philological rigor of keeping the text and showing how it can rendere moderne parole scritte un secolo fa attraverso l'interpretazione e l'intenzione degli attori. Due ore senza intervallo che scorrono in maniera divertente (comicamente riuscite le musiche ispirate ai jingle televisivi), appassionante, intrigante. Grazie al ritmo senza nessun calo il testo viene esaltato nella perfezione dei suoi meccanismi drammatici.
Molto più spostato sul poliziesco che sul noir, forse manca un po' l'atmosfera misteriosa che percorre, sotterranea, tutto il testo.
Ci ha delusi, invece, la resa del personaggio della signora Ponza: si perde, scivola, non si staglia imponente e ieratica come vorrebbero il suo ruolo ambiguo e sibillino.

Nonostante some discontinuity in the deepening of the text (the monologue in the mirror Laudisi remains superficial, and the words of Mr. Ponza lacks the strength of its brutal and bestial character described by Pirandello) directing the show has found effective: we have already spoken of the scene; the characters are characterized with precision and consistency. In particular, the yield Laudisi is the paradox of the only blind person to understand the reality (to him, the raisonneur are entrusted with philosophical reflections on the definition of "truth"). Comedians (simply the posture and gestures) the character of Dino (the only "betrayal" over the original Dina) e quello della signora Cini; emerge la comicità grottesca anche in molti scambi di battute tra i personaggi (soprattutto tra i Signori Sirelli).
