MARIO FRATTI INTERPRETING EDUARDO DE FILIPPO

Reading from and commenting on Filumena Marturano

With MARIO FRATTI and GIULIA BISINELLA

In the balmy heat of late ’40s of last century in Naples, Filumena Marturano lies on her deathbed waiting to marry Domenico Soriano, the man who has kept her as his mistress for twenty-five years. But no sooner has the priest completed the ceremony, than Filumena makes a miraculous recovery. As he reels in shock, Domenico discovers that this brilliant, iron-willed woman has a few more surprises for him.Eduardo De Filippo’s famous play, written in 1946, memorably overturns conventional morality. Exploring themes such as family betrayal, divided loyalty and social status Filumena Marturano is an engaging and provocative piece of theatre, enjoying the status of a classic in Italian literature.
