On a cold winter's day, some porcupines huddled together to protect themselves from the cold. Soon, however, they were too close together and began to prick each other with their quills. The pain forced them to move apart. When the need to keep warm brought them back together again, the same thing happened, over and over again, until they found the right distance that allowed them to keep each other warm without hurting each other.
(Arthur Schopenhauer)

A family like many others. Or perhaps not.
Where there is a teenage son and two unprepared parents.
Moments of dialogue and moments when dialogue seems impossible.

The difference between how we would like to appear in the eyes of others (and perhaps on social media) and how we really are every day, at home, with all our fragility and weaknesses.
Arguments, doors slamming, toilet paper running out because I thought you would buy it.


How can we love each other without hurting each other?

A show composed and performed with fun and rigour, with grace and clarity. A simple and necessary theatre, which makes you smile and cry, think and imagine.

Michele Pascarella - Hystrio

...a fast-paced plot, punctuated by highly precise acting: TRE oscillates between the irony and comedy of picture-perfect domestic life and the intimate despair of unstoppable, unshared growth.

TRE is a real discovery: an example of theatrical and pedagogical research that stands out at a high-level festival such as Kilowatt.

The three actors, magically connected to each other and to the audience, dance, jump and run between the chairs, maintaining a high level of expression and keeping the audience's attention alive, thanks to a script that flows smoothly.
