DELHI: WHAT A TARANTULA EATS

DRAMATIZATION OF TYPICALLY SALENTINE PRODUCE-TASTING

TEATRO KOREJA

Many people think that taste is the unique sense really important when eating and enjoying the pleasures of the table but actually it’s not completely true. During the tasting, all the five senses are involved: sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell. The stage is made up of a series of tables for and individual guided food tasting; through a pair of headphones, the spectator-customer will be guided by two actresses-waitresses to discover the tastes of the typical products of Salento, a mirror of the culture they were born from. During the performance it will be possible to savour lampascioni, scapèce, dried tomatoes, africani and negroamaro wine, all tastes from which it emerges the reverbering light of Salento, the soft stone of its Baroque buildings, the geographical condition of the salentine peninsula and the pilgrimage of tarantolate, women bitten by spiders especially during the summer, when they worked in the countryside. That is culture and cultivation, knowledge and tasting linked together by a common breath nourishing the miracle of a land rich in tradition and future, Salento.
