Creating and diffusing theatre culture among people of all ages, and, above all, among the young (6-18 years old). They are actively involved in several special projects, created for them and ruled together with them.
Using theatre as a way to talk about contemporary society problems, with a particular focus on the most poor or troubled world areas (in the past, we produced projects on Palestine, Nicaragua, Brazil, Mozambique, Iran, Bolivia); on problems connected to Italian emigration abroad or to the very actual topic of foreign immigration in Italy, that has inspired the most recent work with immigrants and refugees from Africa, Central and South America, Asia and the Middle East.
Researching new forms of art expression, mixing theatre, cinema and the visual arts.
Vocational training of young professional artists (actors, playwrights, directors, set and light designers) and organisers (press office, administration, promoters and scouts).
Artistic Direction of ITC Teatro, staging every year several seasons: contemporary dramaturgy, children’s shows, literature and music festivals, Censimento Spettacolo and Premio Scenario (a festival and an award for young Italian theatre companies), the School Theatre Festival (the greatest festival for school theatre groups in Italy), “The Scene of the Meeting”, the newly born multicultural festival.
Italian and international production and co-production of new plays (the English-Italian production of “The March-La marcia” with Badac Theatre, the German-Italian production of “Täglich Brot-Pane Quotidiano” with Claudia Hamm, and the Palestinian-Italian production of Kafka’s Metamorphosis with Al-Harah Theatre), and hospitalities of foreign companies (German Familie Flöz, British Théâtre de l’Ange Fou, Iranian Theatre Bazi, Romanian Foundatia Parada, Spanish Alta Realitat, British Nigel Charnock).
