The play 'Mirandolina', a collaboration between the National Theatre Stabile del Veneto, the Abbey Theatre in Ireland, and the Rijeka HNK Ivana pl. Zajca, had its premiere on February 5 in front of a full house at the Mario Del Monaco Theatre in Treviso. This performance is part of the cultural program for the upcoming Winter Olympic Games in Milan-Cortina in 2026 and represents a significant European event that connects various eras and cultures. Renowned European playwright Marina Carr offers a contemporary interpretation of Goldoni's classic 'The Mistress of the Inn', centering around a modern protagonist in the story. Set in an Italian restaurant in Dublin, the narrative explores the life of Mirandolina, who navigates a male-dominated environment filled with individuals attempting to exert power over her. With her intelligence and strength, she resists their advances, yet her defiance sparks a cycle of violence, highlighting themes of gender-based power dynamics. The production delves into the female experience of fear and the societal costs women face when they challenge patriarchal structures. Through the lens of this historical work re-imagined for modern audiences, the play addresses essential contemporary issues of gender violence while providing a platform for discussions on women's resilience in the face of oppression.
