The now traditional event at the Teatro Carignano, dedicated to children, families, and schools, is an opportunity to rediscover Pippi Longstocking, the world's strongest girl, a free and unconventional woman who uses imagination, irony, and courage to subvert the rules and imagine a more just world. In 2027, 120 years after Astrid Lindgren's birth, Pippi Longstocking returns to the stage, directed by Micol Jalla. For eighty years, Pippi has embodied freedom, courage, justice, and kindness, continuing to speak to girls, boys, and adults. With her extraordinary strength, mismatched stockings, and irreverent irony, she overturns social conventions and demonstrates that imagination can be a concrete instrument of resistance and solidarity. At a time when childhood risks being oppressed by rigid rules, performance anxiety, and models that demand ever more and faster, Pippi defends the right to grow up with an independent outlook. Her eccentricity becomes a gift and an antidote to conformism, raising radical questions about freedom, femininity, and the courage to imagine and build a more just and poetic world together.
