Pain under lock /Sik-Sik the magic maker

The two single acts, small masterpieces by Eduardo De Filippo, are staged at the Argentina Theater, brought together by the skilful direction of Carlo Cecchi.

Pain under lock was initially born as a radio play in 1958, then aired the following year with Eduardo himself and his sister Titina in the role of the protagonists, the brothers Rocco and Lucia Capasso. Lucia, Rocco's sister, for many months hides the death of her wife Elena from her brother and pretends to take care of the woman, seriously ill, for fear that her brother might make an insane gesture, until one day Rocco opening the door of his wife's room, discovers the lie and must face reality in an alternation of responsibilities and accusations between himself and his sister. Furthermore, Rocco hides a secret that he reveals to Lucia: the presence in his life of a lover, perhaps pregnant, who is about to abandon him and run away with another man, as the woman believes that Rocco, being married, cannot offer her a future together all out in the open. In the play, the author, as in his other works, takes up the theme of death which he tries to exorcise through a mocking and grotesque game.

In Sik-Sik the magic maker, written in 1929, we find the marked realism of Eduardo De Filippo, which translates into a reflection on the world of theater as a metaphor for lifeSik-Sik (in Neapolitan, “thin thin) is a clumsy and penniless illusionist who performs in theaters of the lowest order together with his wife Giorgetta, and his shoulder Nicola. One evening, forced to replace Nicola with the first one, he is no longer able to govern the situation and the show fails miserably: the prestige numbers end in disaster and the performance turns out to be tragic for the fake magician but very funny for the audience. The show was a huge success, with more than 450 replicas only in Naples and Eduardo in the main role.

Carlo Cecchi, one of the masters of the Italian theater of the twentieth century, great innovator of the scene, gives us back all the realism with the bitter aftertaste of Eduardo De Filippo and his extraordinary inventive skill.
