The show tells the story of an unexpected encounter between a strange lady and a distracted, frantic girl. Two seemingly distant worlds collide and confront each other within a magical room. What emerges is an enchanted world that the lady knows in every detail: the most beautiful palace in the world, a vast garden, a wise servant, a small grey nightingale with a free and wonderful song, a mechanical nightingale made of gold, diamonds, and precious stones, with a perfect and always identical song, and finally the Emperor of China who, when faced with death, discovers the deepest value of life. Who is that strange lady really? Did she know that world closely, or was she perhaps part of it? Or perhaps, by telling and sharing that story, does she need to relive her own story? Thanks to the strange lady, the girl discovers and feels something new within herself, like a light fluttering of wings, something that awoke the moment she started listening... Knowing how to listen means giving space to oneself and others, it means opening up to friendship and empathy.
We all have a nightingale inside us, but perhaps we don’t know it. Its song reveals itself only to those with deep listening, an open mind, and a passionate heart. And to cultivate all this, it takes care and attention.
