Written in 1959, Saturday, Sunday, Monday is Eduardo De Filippo’s timeless comedy, portraying—with sharp irony—a family crisis that erupts over a traditional Sunday lunch. Luca De Fusco’s precise direction preserves Eduardo’s spirit while bringing out the emotional depth of a play that, with its Chekhovian tone, feels strikingly modern—only superficially bourgeois. This is not a drama about divorce, but a choral comedy about the value of family and the ability to heal after conflict. Between ragù and imagined jealousies, Rosa and Peppino move us today more than ever. The cast includes Claudio Di Palma, Teresa Saponangelo, Anita Bartolucci, and Mersila Socoli.
