For young and old alike. ‘I Saw the Snow’ is the story of Ahmed, a fourteen-year-old Kurdish boy who lives in a care home in Turin. One day, he goes with his friends to the top of the Mole, where he discovers that there are snow-capped mountains near Turin, just like in his home country, from which he was forced to flee when he was very young. He then decides to go and see the snow and runs away from the care home… The play is loosely based on the book *La neve di Ahmed* (published by Jaca Book, 2003) by Francesca Caminoli. It is staged by Artemuda, featuring Roberto Micali, Renato Sibille, Patrizia Spadaro and Jovana Panic, with live music performed by Daniele Contardo. Artemuda is a social promotion association comprising cultural practitioners and researchers with specialist expertise in the artistic fields of theatre, music and dance: this is the origin of the association’s name, with AR standing for Art, TE for Theatre, MU for Music and DA for Dance.
