The article discusses a new theater production titled 'Caro amico,' which presents a poignant dialogue between a poet and a singer, set against the backdrop of Milan. The performance, created by singer-songwriter Marco Massa, features actors and poets who share their reflections on the city and their complex relationship with it, blending nostalgia, beauty, and sorrow.

Massa expresses a sense of disconnection from Milan, portraying it as a city that has changed dramatically over time. His lyrics evoke feelings of love, loss, and a longing for a return to the city's former vibrancy and intimacy. The performance aims to allow the audience to engage with these themes in a unique way—immersed in complete darkness, paving the way for introspection and a heightened auditory experience, guided by the soulful sounds of the performers.

Presented at the Istituto dei Ciechi, the show emphasizes the magic and disorientation of experiencing art in darkness, which Massa describes as both calming and enriching. Through this format, the artists hope to secure a connection with the audience that resonates on a deeper emotional level, encouraging them to reflect on their own relationships with the city and its evolution over time.
