Exciting, ironic, funny and poetic. These are just four of the countless adjectives that could be attributed to a masterpiece played by Geppi Cucciari in his monologue "Perfetta" , on tour on the island for the great prose of Cedac and for the multidisciplinary circuit of live entertainment in Sardinia founded and chaired by Antonio Cabiddu.

Starting from Tempio Pausania, with an immediate sold out, the actress landed at the Teatro Massimo to propose to the island public, who love and follow her for over 15 years in an extraordinary career that has led the Macomer interpreter to become a a real lighthouse in the Italian art scene.

Her unmistakable style and her personality master of the scene, in any context, allows her to deal with radio, TV, cinema and theater with masterful skill.

Wherever Geppi is, it is a guaranteed success and this happens throughout Italy, including the islands.

An empathic verve that captivates the public: three days in Cagliari and three sold out as part of the "Unique Pieces" exhibition commissioned by the artistic director Valeria Cabattoni.

Again tonight, Sunday 8 May, at 7 pm, Geppi Cucciari will be on the stage of the Teatro Massimo, never so alive in this first part of the season.

The text is by a man written for a woman: the pen that signs this jewel, which should be studied in schools to make adolescents understand in an hour and a half what many do not understand throughout a lifetime, it is that of Mattia Torre, author, screenwriter and director who left his life too soon after a long illness.

Among his many successes also the Solinas prize in 2002 for the screenplay of the feature film "Piovono cows" written together with Luca Vendruscolo.

Collaborations well known to the general public are those with Serena Dandini, for the program "Parla con me" and with Corrado Guzzanti for the TV series "Where is Mario?" in addition to the award-winning "Boris" which aired from 2007 to 2010.

"Perfect" explains the female cycle in a gentle, irreverent and ironic way , four Tuesdays in the life of a woman with three men at home, a mother of two children and a car seller: menstrual phase, follicular phase, ovulation and premenstrual phase.

Geppi Cucciari is alone on an unadorned stage, on stage only a white cloth where the colors flow according to her emotions, to the four moods combined with the periods of the cycle, with truly suggestive plays of light and shadows.

The music is by Paolo Fresu while the dress that admirably dresses the protagonist bears the signature of the genius of Antonio Marras .

While the days are repeated according to the usual routine, between an apathetic husband and a slack maid, the cars to sell to win the competition with a colleague from Frosinone, a too slow florist and the sensors of the taps of the restaurants that do not want to know how to operate, it is the protagonist's perception of the world that changes, her mood, her moods, all marked by the four phases, because "the man is linear, the woman is cyclic".

The hilarious gags are in perfect gender equality, there is something for everyone, for her housekeeper and for her boss's butler, the sharp jokes dedicated to the "plant" husband, to the children and to the competitor colleague with pointed shoes , who comes out defeated by the long-distance challenge, counterbalance the self-irony of the protagonist who exalts the comic, neurotic and paradoxical aspects of the four seasons of working women, mothers, wives and factotum of family management.

The audience is mixed but the loudest laughter are the female ones that explode both when the husband is targeted and when the most comical clichés of the hostess's fickleness are pushed to the extreme.

Mattia Torre's writing is so intelligent and profound that there is not a sentence out of place, we laugh, we reflect and the emotions vibrate for the duration of the show that flies away like a delicate breath.

The finale offers a full-screen moon: it is the photo of perfect women, with phases, but always unique and unrepeatable.

The audience, amused and moved, pays long and warm applause and a passionate standing ovation: they would like to hug their darling.

She disappears and the curtain closes.
