This essay deals with the practice of the workshop, which always bewitched Luca Ronconi. Recently, Ronconi organized in Umbria, with Roberta Carlotti, the Centro Teatrale Santa Cristina, where he directed the approach to two plays of Pirandello, Sei personaggi in cerca d’autore (laid out in 2010 and 2011, before to turn into the mise-en-scène seen by Roberto Alonge in Milan, in October 2012) and L’innesto (born in 2012, perhaps destined for a brilliant future on the stage also). They are a double expression of the interest that Ronconi attaches to Pirandello, an author not very loved in the past by Ronconi. The Grand Master of the Italian theatre revises the Pirandellian texts, but his reworking focuses attention to the secret sensibility of the dramatist, between maternal instincts and incestuous reveries.
