About “Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore”
Six Characters in Search of an Author is an Italian play by Luigi Pirandello, written and first performed in 1921. The absurdist metatheatrical work explores the relationship between authors, their characters, and theatre practitioners. It premiered at the Teatro Valle in Rome, where the audience reaction was mixed, with some shouting "Manicomio!" and "Incommensurabile!" due to the play's illogical progression. The play's reception improved after Pirandello added a foreword to the third edition, published in 1925, which clarified its structure and ideas. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
