Cavalluccio Marino and shadow theatre
Once upon a time there was a seahorse, which lived at the bottom of the sea. Cavalluccio was a nice man and always made all his friends laugh with his jokes and jokes, but he had never managed to make his older brother Cavallone laugh. Cavalluccio tried her all to make her brother laugh, jokes, jokes, jokes, riddles, but nothing. Cavallone was really a muson, he always stood on his own behalf and didn't even deserve to be answered with a nod to his head. For Cavalluccio it had become a challenge: he absolutely had to make his brother laugh!
So one day, after countless unsuccessful attempts, a novelty was invented: a shadow theatre!
He had prepared a small stage with algae, all a beautiful choreography with colorful shells and had also invented a fun story: of two brothers who twisted and combined all the colors.
He had just organized everything, with the help of some friends he had decided to surprise Cavallone, who would find himself in front of the stage and could not avoid seeing the shadow show that Cavalluccio had prepared.
At last the big day had arrived: Cavalluccio was very excited when his brother arrived all over the world as usual at the scheduled time. He made him all-important on a beautiful rock right in front of the stage, offering him a good stick of seaweed to crunch and began the show.
Cavalluccio began telling the introduction to the story, then proceeded orienting the lights and began the show with shadows, but it was at this point that happened the unexpected that Cavalluccio had not really thought of: the shadows are done with his hands! And have you children ever seen a seahorse with ever? No of course!
In fact, not even our dear Cavalluccio had them, and so he began to contend in a thousand grimaces and positions, trying to project the shadows in the theatre, but the result was really disappointing! Cavalluccio began to get desperate, sure of the failure of his beautiful idea! He made gestures with his mouth and moved the tail spasmodically and to help himself he made verses such as:"grrrrrrrr, wooooooo, argg...".
And it was precisely then that the incredible thing happened: Cavallone who was watching the show, bored, stopped to watch his brother watch his busy brother in an incredible attempt to shadows without his hands and started laughing!
First he laughed a little bit, but then given the really comic scene that saw Cavalluccio busy in a thousand contortionisms without outcome, he began to laugh so loud and so much of taste! Ride and laugh, so much so that tears come to your eyes!
Stupeffed all the fish of the sea approached to see that great event: Cavallone laughed! And he was really laughing about taste!
Even Cavelluccio at this point began to laugh and laugh, so the beautiful surprise ended in the best way possible: a great laugh for everyone!
