Every day, thousands of people move from one side of the city to another. In this continuous movement of people there are constant focal points, places that must be crossed if one wishes to get somewhere. Transit points, non places, passageways where everything is fleeting, fast, undetermined and indefinite … underground stations … train stations … places that symbolize our time, where everything is accelerated, steps, breathing, glances that fleetingly meet for a few seconds, stories, cultures, languages, places-nonon places blends or hybrids… where everything is ectremely vital because in these places life flows…

In the passageways of the Rome Underground, in the symbolic crossroads of the city, the multiform body “Attraversamenti Multipli” takes place, made up of theatrical and dance performances, videos, installations and music.

“Attraversamenti Multipli” is a mobile and complex ‘event_organism’ – which interacts with the places it visits in its travels, creates theatrical movement and unique video installations, collects visual, body and sound materials and assembles them in a new body.
"Attraversamenti Multipli" begins its fourth tour on 9 September, having already been in the city of Rome in 2001, 2002 and 2003.

(the first edition of Attraversamenti Multipli was in June 2001 with a tour organised in collaboration with Zone Attive, the second in October/November 2002 with a project promoted by the Comune di Roma and the Municipio Roma X. The third edition was held in September 2003 and was promoted by the Comune di Roma, Provincia di Roma and Municipio Roma X )

Having crossed Termini Station “Attraversamenti Multipli” gets into the underground dimension of the subway.
A city of the third millennium is a place where many cities with different languages, colours, odours and architecture pile up and become layered in a sometimes chaotic manner.
Following and narrating this layering which is a symbol of its contemporaneity "Attraversamenti Multipli" moves around in the veins of the city as it follows the path of the A line of the underground.

Each day of the first two stages is made up of a continual flow of artistic action for five hours, created both for passers by, who may stop for even five minutes to watch one single fragment, or for the spectator who follows the whole five hours. This flow is composed of many fragments, each performance has both its own autonomy and a capacity to blend into the other parts.
Each fragment is part of a whole organism made up of performance, installaton, video... that move on border lines between different artistic expressions that continue to overlap and merge with other art forms. Different language interact and tell the story of the underground and the journey through it for different angles.
The core of this flow is "TeleRadio Metropoli" operating in theatre/radio/television/performance for Margine Operativo and Riot Generation Video. This live television and performing radio narrates the thousands of stories of the underground and is the focal point of the other performing actions.


The audio signal that transmits TeleRadioMetropoli will be emitted both on 9th and 14th live via Roma Radio– the tube station, the radio of the underground - in all 49 underground stations. Voices and sounds created by the performances of Margine Operativo will be trasmitted to accompany the flow of passengers
