In Dentro, Giuliana Musso, one of Italy’s most interesting voices in contemporary theater, explores the traumatic effects of silence when abuse occurs at home.

A mother discovers the worst of truths. A father innocent until proven guilty. Waves of doctors, social workers, and other “helpers” who don’t really want to know, furthering the secret’s concealment. Dentro is not documentary theater but an investigation of a current happening; it’s not a work about violence but one exploring the concealment of truth and lost innocence of children. Performed in Italian with English subtitles. (program approx. 90 mins.)
