Radioteatro en Italia. Narrativa entre la radiodifusión pública y los nuevos espacios digitales

Abstract

This paper analyzes Italian radio theatre evolution and its ability to put itself always in the middle between radio and other expressive media: theatre, cinema, comics, daily news, books and Internet. Starting from the analysis of the main evolutionary phases of this complex radio genre, this contribution illustrates the complexity of radio theatre as one of the treasures brought to light by media archeology, which lends itself almost naturally to disciplinary and media crossings. In this expressive format, belonging to media proto history, lurks a deeply complex nature and fervent creativity, which rediscovers in the ether an amplifier of the digital, a new space of expressiveness and diversification of its audience. Keywords: Radio Theatre; Media Narratives; Social Cohesion; Innovation; Creativity; Digital Renaissance.
