Live – 50 years on stage
Massimo Rocchi
‘Live – 50 Years on Stage’ is the follow-up to ‘Live 1.0’, one of the most popular shows by and starring Massimo Rocchi: ‘Live – The Balance between Innovation and Continuity’. Alongside the show’s constant innovations, the audience also learns about Massimo Rocchi’s personal experiences on his journey from Italy, via his studies in Paris, to Switzerland. Massimo Rocchi does not represent a single generation or country, but rather emotions that transcend geographical boundaries. His keen powers of observation, coupled with subtle humour, make ‘Live – 50 Years on Stage’ a truly special show.
The programme, created by and starring Massimo Rocchi, combines pantomime and verbal acrobatics to present profound insights into life and the absurdities of the human condition. In doing so, he plays with different languages and identities, exploring the world with keen interest. He observes people as they greet one another, order an espresso in a bistro, stroll through a city, attend the theatre, lie on the beach at Rimini, or rush hastily from gate to gate. Massimo Rocchi is a comedian, actor and director. His world is the theatre, which he likes to compare to a big city with its various neighbourhoods and facets.
