YOUR RATING

Ottavio Rosati and Bruno Barbieri in The Dickens Christmas Carol - First TV socioplay (2006)

Don Matteo Zuppi metropolitan archbishop of Bologna from 2015 (at the time of the video, pastor of the Basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere) introduces the parable of the rich and the poor of the Gospel of Luke who, according to Ottavio Rosati, inspired Dickens "A Christmas Carol ". The thesis of this sociodrama is that (imagining the saving intervention of the ghost of Marley, partner of Scrooge) Dickens has overcome the old-testamentary rigor of Father Abraham, who in the Gospel of Luke refuses to go to the world of the living to warn his brothers. From a psychodramatic point of view, Dickens's story would thus be a more Christian restructuring of history, based on Marley's love for Scrooge and Dickens's love for Marley.
Dickens's Christmas Caroling is a three-year event-module. Plays carries it out in collaboration with RaiSat Gambero Rosso, the Basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere, the Teatro dell'Opera di Roma, the Teatro Stabile di Catania and the John Cabot University in Rome.
A replica of the in situ socioplay was made in Rome for Jungian analysts by the Italian Association of Analytical Psychology. Another version (present in this playlist) took place at the Moncada Theater for the students of Catania.

Trivia
During the preparation of the TV movie, Ottavio Rosati (who played the role of Charles Dickens) dressed for eight months a nineteenth century costume with a cape and a top hat. He moved in Trastevere carrying on his shoulders the two parrots Cacatoa, Teto and Iside, with the approval of Don Matteo Zuppi, parish priest of Santa Maria in Trastevere, who had authorized him to move freely in all the spaces of the Basilica.
