Didone, Creusa and Lavinia, linked by an accidental encounter with the same man. "Ragazzi di vita" who have not fulfilled their destiny; dropouts. Creatures of the night. For, all that remains is a thin handlful of those unlit hours - that instant where everything can happen as they embrace unconsciously the halting posts of their road to Crucifixion. Then, straight down. Towards hell. With no stopping places. Grasping onto Medusas driftwood against the backdrop of a shopping mall. Down. Deeper and down. Reaching the final exhaustion point of the will to live. To a point where, perhaps, they live life for the first time.

... beautiful writing, elegant but also with a fitting harshness. A show full of energy and passion which should not be missed. The five actors are briilliant!
G.Baffi, LA REPUBBLICA
Clockwork Orange transposed onto The Aeneid, mythical suburbia with virgilian ghosts from yesterday, and flashes of the desolation of our contemporary times, evoking the spirit of Pasolini, Testori, or the metropolitan classicism of Berkoffs theatre. Troy as a modern suburb, where Euryalus and Nisus become two delinquents, two dropouts. A blasphemous howl which screams of eros, homosexuality, violence. Tragic, tragic. An autopsy of memories.
R.di Giammarco, LA REPUBBLICA
... moments of great intensity, ferocious and sour irony, and unnerving actuality. Ricci/Forte seek to open a european road for Italian playwriting
A.Porcheddu, DELTEATRO
... indeed full of truth, eros, homosexuality, violence, tragic and more reliable than Jan Fabre's ORGY OF TOLERANCE ...
