About Me
In my narrative practice I concentrate on the ways voices and bodies interact, managing dance, music, song, and spoken word in different languages.
As a theatre performer, director and choreographer, I am passionate about the human nature and I plumb its depths by investigating and analyzing the stories that are and have been told.
I am a multilingual and multicultural artist and my experiences and studies in Italy, Germany, United Kingdom, China and the United States of America enrich my work with dynamism and diversity.

Full Artist Statement
I am a professional storyteller with a passion for interdisciplinary narratives. As a theatre performer, director and choreographer, I concentrate on the ways voices and bodies interact, managing dance, music, song, and spoken word in different languages.
In my creative practice, I advocate for an intertextual approach to the totality of the theater arts, where the relationship between dramatic text and performance composition is tight-knit and equal. From Musical Theatre to Dance/Theatre, I play and experiment with different forms of art to find the story that will change the world.
I am a multilingual and multicultural artist born and raised in Italy and my experiences and studies in Germany, the United Kingdom, China, and the United States of America enrich my work with dynamism and diversity.
My education and passion for World Literature and my familiarity with international communities have led me to an infatuation with the universal subjectivity of human nature and I plumb its depths by investigating and analyzing the stories that are and have been told.
At the center of my research is the body of the actor/dancer in action and communication with a living audience. The spectators and the performers join their efforts in the quest for a feeling: in the strenuous research for meaning, both sides of the fourth wall are engaged. Without an audience, there is no theater.
I trace my roots to Pina Bausch and her oneiric realism, to Bob Fosse and his grotesque sensuality, to Fabrizio De Andre’ and his fascination for the untold stories of everyday life, to Matthew Bourne and the theatricality he found in movement, to T.S. Eliot and his broken images, to B. Brecht and his belief in the expressivity of a gesture, to SITI Company and the freedom they gave origin to through analysis and collaboration.
