R.OSA by Silvia Gribaudi

Thursday, April 9th at 8:00pm  

R.OSA by acclaimed Italian choreographer Silvia Gribaudi is a joyful, irreverent solo that playfully challenges ideas of beauty, femininity, and performance. With humor, bold physicality, and direct engagement with the audience, Gribaudi transforms the stage into a space of freedom and empowerment. Celebrating imperfection, confidence, and self-expression, R.OSA is both a hilarious and deeply moving experience—an invitation to laugh, reflect, and reconsider the way we look at bodies on stage and beyond.

About R.OSA

R. OSA is a work deeply rooted in Silvia Gribaudi’s poetic language, using sharp irony to question the representation of women, the body, and the roles society assigns them. Through an informal, direct relationship with the audience, the piece unfolds as a one-woman show built around a series of virtuosic challenges.

Inviting spectators to become willing—or unwilling—participants, R. OSA shifts our gaze and confronts our expectations of others. At its core, the work is a playful yet radical exploration of the body’s rebellion against gravity, limits, and preconceptions.
