What does it mean to choose violence as a means for social change? <\/strong>What is happening in the mind of a young person who decides to join a terrorist cell? These are questions that could describe the story of the young people of Campus, who are gripped by the choices and dramas of today\u2019s world: terrorism, hatred, social inequality and the distribution of wealth. <strong>The musical will go on stage at the <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.loppiano.it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Loppiano <\/a><strong>Centre Auditorium, February 17, 2017.<\/strong>  Inspired by an original idea of Chiara Lubich, the musical is based on real events, and comes to the stage after 10 years of artistic planning. \u201cIt was 2004, just after the terrorist attacks in Madrid,\u201d says Gen Rosso\u2019s manager, Valerio Gentile. \u201cThe opening scene is of a railroad track like any railroad track in the world. It\u2019s a story of searching, suffering, questioning and finding redemption, and it places the audience in front of the deep wounds of our times.\u201d  <strong>The musical is composed of 23 songs <\/strong>and choreographies that interact with film sequences and theatrical action. \u201cThe project is the result of collaboration by a team of international professionals,\u201d musical curator Benedikt Enderle explains. \u201cThe sounds are full and strong, with engaging harmonical twists, with lyrics that range from the lightness of a Latin atmosphere to the pathos of African rhythm, in a striking synthesis of sounds that is very captivating.\u201d  The visuals are cutting-edge. \u201cI\u2019ve worked in many international productions,\u201d says Jean Paul Carradori, set designer. \u201cCampus was an unexpected challenge for me because of its dramatic structure and strong theatrical elements. It was necessary to create an atmosphere that would enhance the content and, at the same time, allow the viewers to immerse themselves in the story.\u201d <strong>Directing was by Sarah Finch <\/strong>from Great Britain<strong>, <\/strong>development and scenery by Valerio Cipri from Italy, music by Benedikt Enderle from Switzerland and Jose Manuel Garcia from Spain, choreography by Raymond Estrada from Philippines, technical team by Emanuele Gervasoni from Italy, video design, lights by Jean Paul Carradori from Italy, Beligum, arrangements by Emanuele Chirco from Italy, and sound and final production by Max Zenoni.  <strong>The \u201cITALIA per\u201d Project. <\/strong>Every stop on the tour is connected to a cultural event promoted by SUI.
