Praiano is preparing to experience the magic of the Luminaria di San Domenico with thousands of candles to illuminate the city

Praiano. Everything is ready for the magic of the Luminaria di San Domenico with the first appointment of the 2022 edition “Waiting for the luminaria”. An event full of charm that attracts thousands of people from the Amalfi coast and beyond who let themselves be enchanted by the beauty of a unique and fascinating event.
From 9.30 pm on Saturday 30 July from Piazza Antico Seggio to Piazza San Luca, thousands of candles will decorate the drawings made by citizens in collaboration with the Parish of San Luca Evangelista.
The show has its roots in a workshop experience of several years, placing the actor’s body at the center.
Getting to the construction of the picture is not the end; what is sought is a way of working in which the body is a simple tool, a means on a par with a cloth or a basket.
The single actor on stage performs sound actions, actions inserted in a musical score in which each gesture is a function of a mechanism, of a gear in which what is performed is strictly necessary.
