The exuberant comedy of Neapolitan actress Barbara Foria, the woman in red DOP – pure Neapolitan denomination of origin – returns to the theater.

The diary of a special, but not unique, girl.

Because she says she's never met Totti. Or at least not in public. We all feel a little unique, but in reality we're all equally special. With the same problems, the same feelings and fears, and above all, the same pimple that pops out on our faces at the most inopportune moments.
The show collects the reflections of a now fifty-year-old 3.0 ready to take stock of her life in society and take stock of it, which, even if dramatic, is always better than weighing herself.

Hilarious real-life stories of Barbara, who finds herself grappling with the neuroses and contradictions of the times, yet with age, she manages to see the world less gray and more colorful thanks to lipstick. That symbol of power, freedom, joy, and sensuality that makes you feel more beautiful, more confident, ready to shine and...make your mark. And if you leave it on a lover's shirt, it doesn't matter; you certainly won't wash it yourself!

All it takes is choosing the right shade and matching it to the perfect occasion, to the mood, and above all to the mood and hormone swings of a middle-aged woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown... to give her days a different color!

Coco Chanel said: “If you are sad, if you have a problem in love, put on makeup, put on red lipstick and attack.”

So you feel exhausted because your exes won't abandon you, the extra pounds won't abandon you, and even your mother-in-law has decided to move in with you. All you have to do is put on your prettiest red lipstick and…maybe hang the "old lady" on the wall.

When you feel sad because you've lost your job, because you've lost a love, and you're even starting to lose your sight, et voilà...all it takes is a swipe of lipstick to find the smile you need to show off to a new employer or boyfriend...if you can even see them...since you've also become farsighted! Fortunately, however, with age you become wiser, and so you learn to live and better understand the opposite sex; you learn to show your age and hide the damage; you learn that when life offers you lemons, the best thing to do is look for someone to make out with. You learn that the shape of love is not heart-shaped but round, a bit like her belly and your hips.

So whether it's red, pink, purple, nude, or brown, whether you use it to kiss, bite, eat, smile, shout, or write "Say hello to your sister!" on your boyfriend's bathroom mirror, everyone should put on their favorite lipstick every morning and go out to conquer the world.

And as Marilyn said, the important thing is “to find someone who ruins your lipstick, not your mascara.”
