The Chaos of Triperuno

Written by Teofilo Folengo • Conceived and directed by Dmitri Barcomi

Adapted by Dmitri Barcomi & Majnoon el-Helou

Infamous yet forgotten Renaissance bad boy and author Teofilo Folengo, a Benedictine monk-turned-poet, will guide you through a literary mixtape swirling languages and mysticism, adapted by Dmitri Barcomi from the 1527 satirical fantasy poem The Chaos of Triperuno. The Chaos of Triperuno explores love and morality with magic and humor, in a multidisciplinary adaptation of a never before staged work.
