A tour like no other: Italy’s contradictions and charm imported to Melbourne. “The Mice Had No Grandchildren” is an absurd and lighthearted comedy that captures a peculiar world. Its characters are trapped between a culture of obsessive caution, and a general sense of confusion. Walking barefoot or leaving drafts open are deadly dangers, everyone talks too much but understands little of what they say. Here, falsehoods and condescension are acceptable behaviors, perhaps even essential to the social fabric depicted in “The Mice Had No Grandchildren.” In this setting, it’s better not to trust, the ends justify the means, and above all, in a thief’s house, stealing is out of the question.* This event is recurring
