Saturday, June 21

10 a.m. at Parco dei Cigni: Family bike ride.

The route starts in downtown Jesolo, continues along Via Dragojesolo and the bike path along the Sile River, and ends at the Salsi17 kiosk. 

9:00 p.m. at the Antiche Mura archaeological site: Theatrical performance of “Birt all’inferno” by Romano Pascutto.

Performed by Sandro Buzzatti, with musical accompaniment by Nelso Salton. Sandro Buzzatti performs “Birt in Hell,” or “The Life, Death, and Resurrection of Birt,” one of Romano Pascutto’s extraordinary tales, alongside “The Story of Nane” and “La Gigia,” which have already been featured in previous editions of Equilim in Festa. A story of bitter irony: Birt, in life a ferryman along the sleepy Livenza River, helps Charon ferry souls to the afterlife; he introduces him to the intoxication of Tocai wine, provokes and challenges him, before crossing to the other shore like every mortal. On that border of boats and words, acquaintances and strangers pass by, bearing the marks of life…
