'The Blue Bride' ('La Sposa in Blu' for the Italian production) is a comedy with a shade of noir and dialogues that offer food for thought. The main character is Oona (Oriana for the Italian production, performed by the drag queen Platinette), a 40 to 50-year-old sexologist/psychotherapist who gets home after a hard day at work and starts analysing the male universe while preparing her dinner. Oona gets a kick out of the differences between the world of men and the world of women, out of what women want and expect from the 'stronger sex', going through their idiosyncrasies, manias, beliefs, and madness. Clichés and truths, myths and scientific information, Oona doesn't sugar coat it. She demonstrates the incompatible difference between men and women while nimbly juggling an especially 'difficult' client, two inept police officers, a clumsy thief, and a neighbour who is inspired by Oona's advice to solve the problems she's having with her husband by... eliminating her husband! To top it all off, Oona herself has a few scheletons in the closet; her husband, whom she is always mentioning, has ended up in pieces in the freezer, "glorified" by the pork with gin based dinners Oona offers her friends and neighbours every night.
THE BLUE BRIDE won the American IIDF Award "A Heart For Art - Emerging Musical 2014" in New York City.
