The images from a tour of a play based on Stendhal's The Charterhouse of Parma. The play performances were put on by the Teatro Stabile of Abruzzo directed by Luca De Fusco for the Abruzzo theater circuit during the 1989-90 season. This is the log of eight days on tour - the theaters and the people that the actors meet in the towns and cities hosting the tour.

"This is off-stage humor, as what happens in Michael Frayn's play of the same name. It tells the story of the wandering, the discomforts, the disagreements, the happy times, and the joy of a group of actors on a tour of the theaters of Abruzzo during the coldest part of the winter. This is an original and unusual story told by someone who was simultaneously the director of this report and an actual member of the acting company" (Ugo Gregoretti).
