Il Giocatore di Volano
The reigning dynasties were made spectacular in tournaments, carousels, masquerades, ballets, musical works, interludes. These representations were also a propitious occasion to exhibit, magnify and revive the glories of the prince and his lineage.
It is a ballet of childish games, where the badminton player represented the mix between the ancient and the modern, between Greek mythology and the impersonation of the stunt doubles of the kingdom. This last time, playing badminton, they will beat it so much in the measure of the dance that their cadences will sound like a bird.
