Vora, libro di poesie di Mara Venuto presentata dal poeta Fabio Petrilli, di Elisa Mascia
Foto cortesia di Mara Venuto Prefazione di Vora a cura di Giovanni LaeraVora è una voce dialettale pugliese che significa ‘voragine, inghiottitoio’. Etimologicamente risale al latino vorare ‘inghiottire’, benché Rohlfs ipotizzasse addirittura, alla base del termine, la radice prelatina *vora. Tale voce forma curiose coppie minime con altri dialettismi: con la vura, ad esempio, parola con cui si…

Bari, corteo Storico di San Nicola: presentata la rievocazione storica 2023
Tumblr media
Bari, Corteo Storico di San Nicola: presentata la rievocazione storica 2023. È stata presentata giovedì mattina, a Palazzo di Città, a Bari, l’edizione 2023 del Corteo Storico di San Nicola, realizzato dall’Ati, composta dal Gruppo Ideazione srl e Cube Comunicazione srl, per un importo complessivo a base di gara pari a € 81.147,54 (€ 99.000 IVA inclusa). Ad illustrare l'evento il sindaco di Bari Antonio Decaro, l'assessora alle Culture e Turismo Ines Pierucci, il direttore artistico del Corteo Storico Nicola Valenzano, la regista e coreografa Elisa Barucchieri, che curerà i due spettacoli di danza aerea, alla presenza di Matteo Siciliani, delegato di padre Giovanni Distante, priore della Basilica di San Nicola, e dei presidenti dei cinque Municipi cittadini. Il tema scelto per questa edizione è quello della "Speranza", un sentimento quanto mai necessario e attuale grazie al quale si sentono più vicini fedeli e pellegrini, baresi e viaggiatori provenienti da ogni parte del mondo, cattolici e ortodossi, tutti raccolti nel capoluogo pugliese per onorare il Santo Patrono di Bari e partecipare attivamente alla rievocazione storica della traslazione delle ossa di San Nicola di Myra. Proprio per questo, il Corteo Storico si ripromette di mantenere una fortissima aderenza alle tradizioni storiche e culturali di questa eccezionale manifestazione, dando risalto ai contenuti sacri e tenendo fede a quanto avvenne nel lontano 1087. Gli spettatori potranno così rivivere l'atmosfera di quell'epoca, per immergersi nelle atmosfere, nelle luci e nei costumi di un passato che ha ancora tanto da raccontare. «Unire il messaggio ecumenico di San Nicola rivolto alla pace, alla solidarietà e all'accoglienza al tema della speranza - ha esordito Antonio Decaro - è una scelta che condivido appieno perché mai come in questo momento noi tutti siamo chiamati a sperare che proprio i valori nicolaiani possano prevalere sul clima di violenza, di ferocia e di intolleranza che si respira nei Paesi dilaniati dalla guerra. Al di là dei momenti di tradizione e di spettacolo, è giusto ricordare che la festa di San Nicola è innanzitutto un momento di preghiera e di devozione, con la speranza che l'intercessione del nostro santo patrono possa finalmente aprire le menti e i cuori di chi oggi ancora non depone le armi».... #notizie #news #breakingnews #cronaca #politica #eventi #sport #moda Read the full article

Guest di questa puntata il pugliese Nicola Amoruso, deejay di grande esperienza e producer di successo. Lele Procida lo ha intervistato prima della sua performance musicale.
Ciao Nicola, benvenuto sulle pagine di DiTutto. Possiamo considerarti come dj un vanto della Puglia nel mondo, sei conosciutissimo con lo pseudonimo di Amorhouse e le tue tracce vengono suonate praticamente dappertutto. È una bella soddisfazione ma anche una grande responsabilità.  Raccontaci come nasce una track di successo.
Grazie davvero per l’ospitalità, ne sono onorato. Una track di successo può nascere concordata a tavolino e non è il mio caso, o può nascere semplicemente esprimendo il proprio gusto e credo musicale con tanto lavoro di studio e perchè no, collaborando alle varie realizzazioni con musicisti e tecnici che condividono la stessa passione e sound. Le soddisfazioni prima o poi arrivano.
Sei ormai un veterano della scena House nazionale, ma anche tu hai avuto i tuoi esordi. Come nasce Nicola Amoruso dj?                        
Nicola Amoruso nasce come dj nel 1993 quando durante le prime festicciole tra amici ha capito che il suo divertimento consisteva nel vedere gli altri divertiti dalle proprie selezioni musicali. Di lì poi tanti sacrifici, sforzi ed anche un pizzico di fortuna mi hanno permesso di trasformare una grande passione in lavoro.                                    
Parlaci del tuo rapporto con i social. Ti vediamo sempre particolarmente attivo sul web. Quanto è importante per un dj come te la costante presenza online?    
Oggi purtroppo, anche se non dovrebbe essere proprio così, l’essere presente sui social conta per un buon 50% nella buona riuscita del nostro lavoro e quindi bisogna adeguarsi altrimenti sei fuori dai giochi ... e questo non deve assolutamente accadere se si ha veramente voglia di andare avanti.
Spostiamoci nel futuro… come ti vedi tra qualche anno? Dietro la consolle o imprenditore del mondo della notte?
Non mi piace fare programmi a lungo termine ma spero di riuscire ad essere in console quanto più a lungo possibile ed allo stesso tempo, occupandomi di formazione di nuovi talenti ormai da anni e gestendo un’etichetta discografica house/tech house (Famillia Recordings), perchè no, vedere i miei figliuoli e giovani artisti che formo e seleziono, raggiungere grandi successi grazie anche al mio lavoro ed ai miei consigli.  
Nel dj set che ti vedrà protagonista  nel nostro “Time for Music” hai scelto una location molto particolare.. Raccontaci come è nata l’idea di proporre musica suonando su una barca in una meraviglia cornice portuale.  
Organizzare un djset nel bellissimo porto di Bisceglie, paese in cui sono nato ed in cui vivo, nasce dall’idea di dar lustro quanto più possibile al territorio che amo e che spero sia valorizzato sempre di più da imprenditori locali ed amministrazione comunale.
E per concludere questa interessante chiacchierata non possono mancare i saluti di Nicola Amoruso.
Saluto tutto lo staff di DiTutto e… viva la musica!

Tumblr media
Keegan-Michael Key (born March 22, 1971) is an American actor, comedian, writer, and producer.
Key co-created and co-starred alongside Jordan Peele in Comedy Central's sketch series Key & Peele (2012–2015) and co-starred in USA Network's Playing House (2014–2017). He spent six seasons as a cast member on Mad TV (2004–2009) and has made guest appearances on the U.S. version of Whose Line is it Anyway? on The CW. He also appeared alongside Peele in the first season of the FX series Fargo in 2014, and had a recurring role on Parks and Recreation from 2013 to 2015. He hosted the U.S. version of The Planet's Funniest Animals on Animal Planet from 2005 until 2008.
Key has had supporting roles in several films, including Pitch Perfect 2 (2015), Don't Think Twice (2016), and Toy Story 4 (2019). Also in 2015, he appeared at the White House Correspondents' Dinner as the Key & Peele character Luther, President Barack Obama's anger translator. Key and Peele produced and starred in the 2016 action-comedy film Keanu. In 2017, Key made his Broadway debut in Steve Martin's Meteor Shower.
Early life
Key was born in Southfield, Michigan on March 22, 1971, the son of black father Leroy McDuffie and white mother Carrie Herr. He was adopted at a young age by a couple from Detroit, Michael Key and Patricia Walsh, who were both social workers. Like his birth parents, his adoptive parents were also a black man and white woman. Through his biological father, Key had two half-brothers, one of whom was comic book writer Dwayne McDuffie (1962–2011). Key only discovered the existence of his siblings after they had both died.
Key attended the University of Detroit Mercy as an undergraduate, earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in theater in 1993, followed by a Master of Fine Arts in theater at Pennsylvania State University in 1996. While at the University of Detroit Mercy, he was a brother of Phi Kappa Theta.
Career
Mad TV
In 2004, Key joined the cast of Mad TV midway into the ninth season. He and Jordan Peele were cast against each other, but both ended up being picked after demonstrating great comedic chemistry. Key played many characters on the show. One of his most famous characters is "Coach Hines", a high school sports coach who frequently disrupts and threatens students and faculty members. On the penultimate episode of Mad TV, Hines revealed that he is the long-lost heir to the Heinz Ketchup company and only became a Catholic school coach to help delinquent teenagers like Yamanashi (Bobby Lee). During seasons 9 and 10, Key appeared as "Dr. Funkenstein" in blaxploitation parodies, with Peele playing the monster. Key also portrayed various guests on Real **********ing Talk like the strong African Rollo Johnson and blind victim Stevie Wonder Washington. He often goes "backstage" as Eugene Struthers, an ecstatic water-or-flower delivery man who accosts celebrities. There is also "Jovan Muskatelle", a shirtless man with a jheri curl and a shower cap. He interrupts live news broadcasts by a reporter (always played by Ike Barinholtz), annoying him with rapid fire accounts of events that have happened frequently exclaiming "It was crazy as hell!" Celebrities that Key impersonated on the show include Ludacris, Snoop Dogg, Roscoe Orman (as his character Gordon from Sesame Street), Matthew Lillard, Bill Cosby, Al Roker, Terrell Owens, Tyler Perry, Keith Richards, Eddie Murphy (as his character James "Thunder" Early from the movie Dreamgirls), Sherman Hemsley (as his character George Jefferson on The Jeffersons), Charles Barkley, Sendhil Ramamurthy (as Mohinder Suresh), Tyson Beckford, Seal (originally played by Peele until Peele left the show at the end of season 13), Sidney Poitier, Lionel Richie, Barack Obama, Kobe Bryant and Jack Haley (as the Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz). He also played female celebrities, including Phylicia Rashād, Robin Antin, and Eva Longoria (as Gabrielle Solis on a Desperate Housewives parody).
Key & Peele
Key and his former Mad TV castmate Jordan Peele starred in their own Comedy Central sketch series Key & Peele, which began airing on January 31, 2012 and ran for five seasons until September 9, 2015. Key and his comedy partner Jordan Peele starred in an episode of Epic Rap Battles of History, with Key playing Mahatma Gandhi and Peele playing Martin Luther King Jr. The pair returned to Epic Rap Battles of History with the "Muhammad Ali versus Michael Jordan" battle, with Key portraying Jordan.
Key was introduced by President Barack Obama at the 2015 White House Correspondents' Dinner as Luther, Obama's Anger Translator, one of Key's characters from Key & Peele.
Friends from College
Key plays the most prominent male character, Ethan Turner, on the Netflix ensemble comedy Friends from College, about a group of Harvard University graduates and friends now in their late 30s living in New York City. He plays an award-winning fiction writer who is being encouraged to start writing for young adult fiction audiences.
Other work
Key was one of the founders of Hamtramck, Michigan's Planet Ant Theatre, and was a member of the Second City Detroit's mainstage cast before joining the Second City e.t.c. theater in Chicago. Key co-founded the Detroit Creativity Project along with Beth Hagenlocker, Marc Evan Jackson, Margaret Edwartowski, and Larry Joe Campbell. The Detroit Creativity Project teaches students in Detroit improvisation as a way to improve their communication skills. Key performed with The 313, an improv group formed with other members of Second City Hollywood that appears around the country. The 313 is made up primarily of former Detroit residents and named for Detroit's area code. Key also hosted Animal Planet's The Planet's Funniest Animals.
He made a cameo in "Weird Al" Yankovic's video "White & Nerdy" with fellow Mad TV co-star Jordan Peele. In 2009, Key hosted GSN's "Big Saturday Night", and has co-starred in Gary Unmarried on CBS. Key was a panelist on the NPR comedy quiz show Wait Wait, Don't Tell Me... on March 27 and July 24, 2010. Key has been in several episodes of Reno 911! as the "Theoretical Criminal".
Key and Peele were featured on the cover and in a series of full-page comic photos illustrating The New York Times Magazine article "Is Giving the Secret to Getting Ahead?" on March 31, 2013. A live-action video version was also featured on the Times' website. Key co-stars in the horror-comedy Hell Baby. Key is one of the rotating "fourth chair" performers in the 2013 revival of Whose Line Is It Anyway?.
In addition to Key & Peele, he also co-starred in the USA Network comedy series Playing House, which began airing in April 2014.
Together with his comedy partner Jordan Peele, Key played an FBI agent in a recurring role in the 2014 FX crime drama Fargo.
Key was involved in audio episodes for the marketing campaign, "Hunt the Truth" on the website for the video game Halo 5: Guardians, voicing a fictional journalist and war photographer named Benjamin Giraud, who investigates the Master Chief's background.
Key has had small supporting roles in numerous films, including 2014's Horrible Bosses 2, Let's Be Cops and the animated The Lego Movie, as well as Pitch Perfect 2 and Tomorrowland in 2015. Key and Peele are currently working with Judd Apatow on a feature-length film for Universal Pictures.
Key is one of several hosts of the podcast Historically Black by American Public Media and The Washington Post.
In the summer of 2017 Key returned to the theatre after what he characterized as a "19-year detour into sketch comedy" for a production of Hamlet at New York's Public Theater, playing Horatio opposite Oscar Isaac in the title role. Key, who is a Shakespearean-trained actor, fulfilled his lifelong dream to play Horatio and received rave reviews for his performance. The Hollywood Reporter's David Rooney noted that Key's comedic skills were on full display, "...but his ease with the verse and stirring sensitivity [was] a revelation."
Key voice acted in The Star, the animated film based on the Nativity of Jesus. He later went on to voice Ducky in Toy Story 4 and Kamari in The Lion King.
In 2017, Key made his Broadway debut in Steve Martin's comedy Meteor Shower.
Brain Games
Key currently hosts Brain Games on National Geographic
Personal life
Key was married to actress and dialect coach Cynthia Blaise from 1998 until 2017. They were legally separated in November 2015, with Key filing for divorce the following month. He married producer and director Elisa Key (formerly Elisa Pugliese) in New York City on June 8, 2018.
Key is a Christian and has practiced Buddhism, Catholicism, and Evangelicalism in the past. Being biracial has been a source of comedic material for Key, who told Terry Gross in an interview for NPR, "I think the reason Jordan and I became actors is because we did a fair amount of code-switching growing up and still do."
Philanthropy
Key has worked with the Young Storytellers Foundation as an actor for their annual fundraiser alongside Max Greenfield, Jack Black and Judy Greer.

A who’s-who of Oscar nominees, A-listers and top Hollywood executives came out to support the Motion Picture & Television Fund at its 17th annual “Night Before” party, which raised $5 million in support of the MPTF.
One of the key events of Oscar weekend, the “Night Before” party, held Saturday on the Fox Studios lot in Los Angeles and co-sponsored by The Hollywood Reporter, drew past Oscar winners including Mahershala Ali (also a current nominee, who came with wife Amatus Sami-Karim), George Clooney, Viola Davis  (with husband Julius Tennon), Leonardo DiCaprio, Marcia Gay Harden, Allison Janney and Octavia Spencer.

Close, Grant and King made their way to the party just a few hours after collecting Film Independent Spirit Awards earlier in the day for best actress, best supporting actor and best supporting actress, respectively.
The 2019 host committee included a lineup of talent including Adams and Le Gallo, Ali, Tanya Haden Black and Jack Black, Kate Capshaw and Steven Spielberg, Amal and George Clooney, Close, Colagrande and Dafoe, Bradley Cooper, Tom Cruise, DiCaprio, Lady Gaga, Janney, King, Malek, Mortensen, Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith, Rachel Weisz, Rita Wilson and Tom Hanks, Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth, and Constance Wu.

CEO Kevin Tsujihara, Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos, Universal Pictures chair Donna Langley, Sony Pictures chair Tom Rothman and Paramount Pictures CEO Jim Gianopulos also were at the bash, where guests enjoyed specialty foods from Carmelized Productions by Jon Shook & Vinny Dotolo.
Funds raised during the “Night Before” party are used to support the MPTF, which assists industry members in Hollywood of all ages by providing financial assistance, crisis counseling, caregiving support and the retirement facility in Woodland Hills that film and TV veterans call “home.”
In total, the annual event has raised more than $85 million since its inception in 2003.
THR returned as one of the presenting sponsors of the event alongside Delta Air Lines, Ford Motor Company, L'Oréal USA, Target, Yahoo! and YouTube. This marked THR's sixth year as the sole media sponsor of the party.
