"Potrebbe andar peggio… potrebbe piovere" e, di fatto, diluviava ieri sul tanto atteso ritorno a Roma di Frankenstein Junior, accolto calorosamente da un pubblico numeroso ed elettrizzato che ha letteralmente invaso il Teatro Brancaccio. Frankenstein Junior (titolo originale Young Frankenstein) e un musical del 2007, trasposizione teatrale dell'omonimo film di Mel Brooks con musiche e liriche dello stesso Brooks, libretto di Brooks e Thomas Meehan e regia originale di Susan Stroman. La versione italiana, curata dalla Compagnia della Rancia, si avvale della regia di Saverio Marconi e Marco Iacomelli e di un cast capitanato da Giampiero Ingrassia (Frederick Frankenstein), Mauro Simone (Igor), Valentina Gullace (Inga), Giulia Ottonello (Elizabeth) e Altea Russo (Frau Blucher). Seguono Fabrizio Corucci (la Creatura), Felice Casciano (Ispettore Kemp), Roberto Colombo (Victor Frankenstein), Davide Nebbia (Abelardo), Michele Renzullo (Ziggy), Giorgio Camandona, Paola Ciccarelli, Anna Bodei e Francesca di Cresce. L'intento di queste pagine e di raccogliere i pareri della critica, pressoche concorde, relativi a questo spettacolo dal suo debutto nella passata stagione ad oggi.

In attesa del suo debutto con A NIGHT ON BROADWAY, ho intervistato per voi il protagonista: Daniele Carta Mantiglia... buona lettura! Daniele Carta Mantiglia, classe 1992, una promessa del teatro musicale italiano. Daniele, tra meno di una settimana debutti con il tuo A Night on Broadway. Lo spettacolo nasce da una tua idea. Di cosa si tratta? Lo spettacolo nasce dall'idea - mia e di Flavio Gismondi - di portare in scena quei brani che dall'infanzia fino ad oggi hanno influenzato, riempito e incorniciato tutta la mia vita, in forma di concerto. Partendo proprio dalla mia infanzia e quindi dal mio incontro diretto con questo mondo, grazie al mio primo lavoro 'Giulietta e Romeo', si e creato quindi un vero e proprio percorso senza distinzioni di genere, ruolo o epoca che fondamentalmente comprende tutti quei brani che volendo o no fanno parte del bagaglio di ogni artista. È nato con la volonta di condividere con amici, colleghi e chiunque altro fosse interessato, emozioni e ricordi per scoprire insieme questo magico mondo, in tutte le sue meraviglie, ma anche in tutte le sue problematiche. È dunque uno spettacolo cucito 'a misura' su di te, che parla delle tue esperienze, dei tuoi successi, dei sogni, delle prime delusioni… È senz'altro piu difficile interpretare se stessi piuttosto che calarsi in un ruolo completamente diverso. Condividi?
