Tremolino is a name and not a name. In the sense that Tremolino is a nickname, but now everyone uses it as a name. Yes, okay, you got it, this child is nicknamed Tremolino because he has a little problem with fears. No, he’s not just a little afraid; he’s a little afraid of many scary things, so he has many little fears that add up to a big fear. A difficult situation, but there’s mom and dad, and then aunt and uncle, and then grandpa and grandma, and then mom’s friend. In short, there are many grown-ups who get together to find a solution, and they talk… and talk… in the end they decide: ‘Tremolino must go to boarding school!’ That way, he’ll learn and grow, and we can stop calling him Tremolino; we’ll call him by his real name, which is… So our story begins with an expedition, Tremolino’s expedition to the ‘Tutti buoni!’ boarding school. Yes, that’s exactly what it’s called: the ‘Tutti buoni!’ boarding school. It’s there, accompanied by the Director and the Teachers, that Tremolino will experience his greatest adventure and discover that his real name is indeed a beautiful one. A show about identity and believing in oneself.
