Details

Sicily, summer 1916. Gossiping and singing, the women gather to harvest old Simone's almond crop. He's the richest landowner in the district but he has no heir. Local lad Liolà, untroubled by convention, has fathered three little boys, each with a different mother, and that only intensifies Simone's anguish. When another of the girls falls pregnant, Simone is persuaded he might recognize the baby as his own. But he's forgotten the charms of his slighted young wife Mita, who is not so easily crushed.

This high-spirited drama by Pirandello takes us to the heart of a rural community where property and family provoke fierce passions. Tanya Ronder's new version, performed by an Irish cast and gypsy musicians, premieres at the National Theatre in August 2013, in a production directed by Richard Eyre. Liolà is an unexpected delight from the master of Italian drama; full of charm, passionate, funny and touching.
