Midway between a sorcerous s\u00e9ance and a bureaucratic catalogue, the general\u2019s monologue \u2013 delivered by Alessandro Renda \u2013 is accompanied by musicians Enzo and Lorenzo Mancuso who, with their powerful voices of ancient deities, seem to howl the pain of humanity from the depths of an abyss, the embodiment of an &#8220;oratorio for the sacrificed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[\u2026] The shocking everyday reality of overcrowded boats that sink and for which no one feels responsible is evoked with poetry and accusation like an ancient tragedy, and at the same time re-projected into the present through the reference to fortress Europe and its mechanisms of disregard and defense. Alessandro Renda\u2019s Frontex Neptune is made ridiculous with a distorted, squeaky voice and tired, lordly gesticulations, accompanied by the archaic spirit song of the Mancuso Brothers, from which perhaps the souls of the dead emerge.\u00a0<em>Rumore di acqu<\/em>e is a complex requiem that does not stop at simple \u201cdenunciation\u201d, and it moves us for precisely this reason [\u2026]\u201d.\u00a0 &#8211; Renate Klett, Theater der Zeit<\/p>\n<p>Under the patronage of:\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/media\/montclairedu\/chss\/inserra\/2013-14\/Amnestylogo.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>About Alessandro Renda<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/media\/montclairedu\/chss\/inserra\/2013-14\/Renda-Noise-in-the-Waters.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teatrodellealbe.com\/ita\/curriculum.php?id=12\">Alessandro \u200cRenda<\/a>\u00a0was part of the Teatro delle Albe&#8217;s\u00a0<em>non-school<\/em>\u00a0as an adolescent and later joined as an actor in 1999.
