    Teatro Miela Mercoledì 5 e giovedì 6 dicembre 2018 alle ore 20.30 UNA SPLENDIDA GIORNATA… DA CLANDESTINO UNA SPLENDIDA GIORNATA… DA CLANDESTINO di Giuseppe Nicodemo ispirato a un reportage di Gianpaolo Sarti per “Il Piccolo” di Trieste con Francesco Godina con la partecipazione in video di Zabiullah Ahmadi scenografie di Marco Juratovec, videodesign Davide Sanson regia di Sabrina Morena produzione Bonawentura in collaborazione con Il Piccolo di Trieste La scorsa estate il giornalista Gianpaolo Sarti si è finto migrante per scrivere un reportage sulla situazione dei richiedenti asilo a Trieste. Sarti ha trascorso l’intera giornata con un gruppo di ragazzi afgani e pachistani. Ha cambiato identità usando un nome inventato. Si è vestito da migrante pescando dal proprio armadio la t-shirt più vintage, un paio di jeans ormai logori e vecchie ciabatte. La barba incolta e la pelle abbronzata hanno aiutato il cronista nel travestimento. La giornata è cominciata proprio al Silos, il capannone che da qualche anno funge da riparo abusivo per centinaia di migranti che proprio lì, tra fango, escrementi e spazzatura, talvolta trovano un posto dove dormire. Sono persone che per varie ragioni non sono ancora entrate nel sistema di accoglienza cittadino. Il giornalista si è messo a dormire accanto a loro, usando come giaciglio un asciugamano e uno zaino. “Hai fame? Hai bisogno di una doccia? Bene, vieni con noi!”, si è sentito dire a un certo punto da quel gruppo di giovani stranieri. Il finto migrante, insomma, è stato subito accettato e accolto. Senza troppe domande. La trasposizione sulla scena del reportage nasce da una proposta dell’attore Francesco Godina che ha intuito per primo le potenzialità artistiche e teatrali del testo.

    FALL ISSUE: NOVEMBER 2019 EDITOR: HELEN E. FROHNA NEWSLETTER OF THE UWM SLOVENIAN ARTS COUNCIL SLOVENIAN ARTS PROGRAM How would you describe Slovenian music? President: Christina Carroll Would it be Frankie Yankovic playing his accordion and singing about you and me under the silk umbrella (Židana Marela Polka)? Or would it be the Original Oberkrainer (Ansambel Avsenik) performing Trompetenecho? This is the type of music that most Slovenian-Americans recognize and relate to. When people left their homes and families behind in Slovenia/Austrian Empire to come to America to reinvent their lives in the mines and factories in Michigan’s UP, the Iron Range in Minnesota, and the cities of Cleveland, Chicago, and Milwaukee, they wanted to remember a little bit of “home”. Various singing choirs and musicians organized to replicate the melodies and sounds that they knew when they were growing up. Folk melodies were what they remembered. Over the past 30 years, the UWM Slovenian Arts Council presented various music programs that featured Slovenian performers and/or Slovenian compositions. Not all performers were from Slovenia, not all music sounded like familiar Slovenian folk tunes. Our goal was to showcase various types of music for the enjoyment and enrichment of the Slovenian-American commu- nity and the public at large. Singers and musicians from Slovenia consisted of the Deseti Brat Oktet, Navihanke, Vlado Kreslin, Perpetuum Jazzile, Slovenski Oktet, and the Lojze Slak Ansambel, performing folk, classical, and contemporary compositions. But other programs also featured the Singing Slovenes from Minnesota; from Cleveland, the Jeff Pecon Band, Fantje Na Vasi, and the Fantje’s next generation singers, Mi Smo Mi.

The oak doors are adapted from the entrance to Rowallan Castle in Ayrshire. Above the doors and cabinet are lines lauding freedom from The Brus by John Barbour . On either side of the sandstone fireplace are matching kists, or chests. A portrait of Scotland’s immortal poet, Robert Burns, dominates above the mantel. Above the portrait is the cross of St. Andrew, Scotland’s patron saint. Bronze figures representing 13th– and 14th-century patriots William Wallace and Robert the Bruce stand on the mantel near an arrangement of dried heather. The blackboard trim bears a proverb found over a door in 1576: “Gif Ye did as ye should Ye might haif as Ye would.” Names of famous Scots are carved on blackboard panels and above the mantel.

    “2016 Año del Bicentenario de la Declaración de la Independencia Nacional” (S-3574/16) PROYECTO DE DECLARACION El Senado de la Nación: DECLARA De interés la obra humana y solidaria del padre Pedro Pablo Opeka, sacerdote argentino comprometido con la sociedad y con una voluntad inigualable para cambiar la desigualdad en el mundo. Laura E. Rodríguez Machado. FUNDAMENTOS Señora Presidente: Pedro Pablo Opeka, conocido como el Padre Pedro, es un sacerdote católico que trabaja como misionero en Madagascar. En ese país africano, uno de los más pobres del mundo, vio a chicos descalzos viviendo en un basurero y decidió ayudarlos a tener una vida digna. Con la ayuda de la fundación France Libertes, lo producido y la ayuda de jóvenes del lugar levantó casillas precarias que fueron reemplazadas por casas de ladrillos de dos pisos y les enseñó a vivir con lo que ellos producen. Los grupos de casas fueron así creando una ciudad levantada donde estaba el basurero. Nació en la ciudad de San Martin, partido General San Martin, Provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina, y es hijo de Luis Opeka y María Marolt, inmigrantes eslovenos que llegaron a la Argentina en enero de 1948 escapando del régimen totalitario en Eslovenia de Tito. De niño aprendió el oficio de albañil. A los quince años de edad decidió ser un clérigo de la Iglesia Católica y entró a un seminario de la orden Lazarista. Estudió en Lanús, vivió en Ramos Mejía e hizo el noviciado en San Miguel. Cuando aún no tenía diecisiete años construyó una casa en Junín de los Andes para una familia de indígenas mapuches.
