Description: In the pro Sestio Cicero documents the complex relationship of the Latin theater of the first century BC with the ‘evenemential’ reality. In fact, he describes the rituals of collective presence, the whistles and the applause, that is, those significationes, which manifest the will of public opinion. But Cicero, through the story of the theatrical day of 57 BC, makes us understand how the practice of actualizing dramatic texts was a usual way. Roman spectators were ready to grasp in the theatrical communication those topics that seemed to cadere in tempus. An important fact to understand a theatrical reception that passed through a ‘Romanization’ and that in otherness could find its identity and even the present. [Author]
