“Saint Francis – The Canticle” on stage at the Salesians cinema theater

The show – On the 800th anniversary of the death of Saint Francis, this show retraces the life of the patron saint of Italy from his birth to his sanctification, passing through all the episodes that have made his hagiography unique and inimitable: the wild youth, the conversion, the first followers, the acceptance of the rule, the miracles, the journey to the sultan, the hermitage, the stigmata, up to the writing of the first prayer-poem in vernacular Italian Literature, “The canticle of the creatures”. An emotional exegesis of this last work is proposed to explain the text, but at the same time to convey the emotions and the deepest meanings of a literary (as well as religious) document of exceptional importance. Tickets, at the cost of € 10.00, are already available for online presale on Liveticket (link: http://www.liveticket.it/evento.aspx?Id=701585)
