Totò Poetry Culture

Totò Poetry Culture is the duo made up of the poet-performer Gianni Valentino and the musician-producer Lello Tramma who revise the poetic production of famous Neapolitan actor Antonio de Curtis (Totò) into a set of electronic music and spoken words. The project was born on the occasion of the seventieth anniversary of Malafemmena, Totò’smost known poem and song.The show, featuring Gianni Valentino (spoken words) and Lello Tramma (live electronics / synth / laptop / guitar with effects) is lined up at teatro Trianon Viviani in Naples, February 24th. I will be coordinating the visual set I have edited and with has entirely been conceived and shot  by Gianni Valentino.
