The city moves, or rather, “The city moves”, as Lucio Dalla sang, to quickly give Cagliari a program of shows and culture for the summer months.
Approximately 75 thousand euros including VAT are the funds that the municipal council led by the mayor Massimo Zedda, in office for a few weeks, has hastily scraped together from the folds of the budget, so as not to starve the people of Cagliari who do not leave for the holidays .
The program presented this morning at the Mem by the mayor himself and by the municipal councilor for Culture, Tourism and Entertainment, Maria Francesca Chiappe, is based on Sardinian artists. Some paid (with a discount, to accommodate the Municipality at a time when the budget cannot yet be changed), others free of charge for the same reason.
The peculiarity of the event is that it will have many municipal scenarios, which from August 1st to September 9th will host cultural and entertainment initiatives. For example, the debut on August 1st will be at the Giardini sotto le mura with a cross-interview with Claudia Rebellino and Walter Falgio, who created two tourist guides of Cagliari ten years apart from each other. And to follow there will be the journalist Giorgio Porrà interviewed by Massimiliano Medda and a show by Reverend Jones.
The scenarios are many, the appointments much more. The initiatives will take place at Exma', and then Parco della Musica, Bastione di Saint Remy, Giorgino, Piazzetta Cannas, Ex Vetreria, Sant'Eulalia and Piazza Paese di Seui: «To be in all the neighborhoods, to give an offer to the entire population", clarifies councilor Chiappe. And there will be many names on the stages: Flavio Soriga, Gianluca Medas, Lapola, Riccardo Milani (director of the film about Gigi Riva “In our sky a rumble of thunder”), Ambra Pintore as singer and, finally, Jacopo Cullin.
