Dirty Chamber Theatre
Driving back from the airport after performing Last Night I Dreamt My House Was Leaking... at PAD in Mainz, September 2009; Mary said "What do you think our next piece will be?", I hesitated, she continued: "I want it to be dirty" and I responded, "It will be a Chamber piece; it will be intimate and dirty". "Dirty!" we proclaimed to each other - somewhat in awe at what we had given birth to - and then we asked "What will that be like?".
Almost two years later, we have our 'dirty…

La scuola impertinente - Percorso di educazione alla teatralità
Il teatro inteso come luogo d'incontro, diviene per chi lo pratica una casa in cui sentirsi protetti, un ambiente familiare in cui è sempre bello ritornare e dal quale si possa partire sereni e rinnovati.
Da qui nasce l’idea di creare un percorso teatrale che…

An excerpt from my play "Whether"
It’s night again. The same setting as the first one. It is even hotter than before if that is even possible. After many moments of silence TEMPERANCE sits up strait with her eyes open.
