September Paths of Fairytales
SUMMER SEASON DEDICATED TO CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES
This year again, Associazione Culturale Dello Scompiglio presents a summer season dedicated to children and families: two open-air weekends with various events, including creative workshops, themed walks and theatre shows in the outdoor spaces of the Tenuta. An opportunity for children to play outside the domestic sphere and for everyone to rediscover the nature of the estate, where majestic trees, nymphaea, and wooded areas alternate with vineyards and agricultural areas, different environments and forms in a single garden. The festival will be held on 6th and 7th June and on 5th and 6th September 2026, with different programmes.
Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th September 2026
Associazione Culturale Dello Scompiglio continues the summer season dedicated to children and families with creative and nature workshops, themed walks in nature and theatre shows both in the indoor and outdoor spaces of the homonymous estate.

a production by Orto degli Ananassi
by and with Ilaria Di Luca and Andrea Gambuzza
scenery and costumes Emanuela Dall’Aglio

WroOng! is a show that explores, with both irony and depth, the boundary between right and wrong, perfection and imperfection. Two eccentric scientists move around a mysterious machine capable of making anyone perfect, or so it seems. Amid experiments and unexpected twists, the Company invites the audience to reflect on themes of self-affirmation, acceptance and the value of mistakes as part of growth.
Recommended age: everyone aged 5+. Theatre of actors
Saturday and Sunday, 3.00 PM:
WORKSHOPS
Fantastic Notebooks – Books to Invent
Curated by RecuperARTI
This workshop is dedicated to the creation of small, handcrafted notebooks, stitched books made from reclaimed materials, coloured paper and fabrics. Using simple folding, assembly and creative binding techniques, each participant will be able to construct a unique and personal object, to decorate with collages, cutouts, threads, textures and graphic details. These notebooks will become little spaces for imagination and storytelling, a place to hold drawings, thoughts, stories, notes and inventions. The workshop celebrates hands-on creation and the joy of transformation, encouraging everyone to freely experiment with shapes and materials.
Understanding Science with Illustrated Books – Seeds and Fruits
Curated by Rossana Tanzi
Illustrated books are an extraordinary tool for understanding the world; by reading a selection of books and a series of practical and creative activities we will explore the world of plants, discovering the journey of seeds, from the flowers that add colour to meadows and gardens, attract insects and perfume the air, to the fruits that ripen, change shape and safeguard seeds ready to give new life. The event will include readings, small experiments and exploration of nature, and will conclude with a creative moment in which everyone can capture their observations on paper using mixed techniques including drawing and collage.

“In the Snow Queen’s castle, everything is so cold and empty”, says young Kai, after escaping the icy grip of the Queen who had kidnapped him. Kai and Gerda are great friends, but one day a shard of glass from the devil’s magic mirror gets stuck in the boy’s heart and eyes, profoundly altering his perception of the world. This story tells of the difficult transition from childhood to adolescence, a delicate phase for young people during which the powers of thought emerge vigorously and demand to be exercised. However, these forces must always be tempered and “warmed” by the heart, if a healthy balance between feeling and critical thinking is to be maintained.
