Dino Lopardo

I drown to accomplish something now. The man left on his own, is too bad to be free, so Nicolas says, the protagonist of the story who dreams of one day being a professional swimmer. Dino Lopardo's theatrical text has a pressing and varied rhythm: it goes from fairy-tale tones, to harsh daily stories of holidays, of the municipal swimming pool, of brotherhood, of grotesque relatives.

SuiGeneris ha assegnato il Premio SuiGeneris – Fringe  (Fringe Festival Torino 2024) “Affogo” a Dino Lopardo per aver fatto immergere gli spettatori nel degrado, nel menefreghismo, nella corruzione, nel bullismo che fanno boccheggiare e aver dato una via di risalita.

Affogo has been Shortlisted for the national IN-Box AWARD 2024; Shortlisted for best dramaturgy of an emerging author for Le Maschere Award.
