What do a 13th-century Tuscan farmer recovering from a fierce battle, an actor at the height of his success who has just been abandoned by his wife, a man who has given up everything to live in a garbage can have in common? Simple, they are the same person. To be precise, Nemesio Rea. 
This is the paradox from which the show "Dioggene" starts.  A monologue spanning the ages written by Giacomo Battiato specifically for the actor Stefano Fresi. Alone on stage, Fresi takes on the role of three different characters to recompose the puzzle of a single life, to tell the story of a man in all his absurd contradictions, pettiness, but also flashes of genius and enlightenment.
