To my family,

to which I could not devote anything yet;

to travel companions

to which I stole what I’ve;

to Taddo,

that’s sounding in Africa,

I'm sure.

Preface

––––––––

Bury me therefore

on the top of a tree

that have roots

in your hands

and I

will show you my hells,

in our,

endless

certainties

That only a leaf detached from the branch

which can be bent by the wind

can contain in itself,

as in a closed fist,

a part of the sea.

––––––––

The theatre is a form of handicraft; a handicraft of relations. I think I've said many times, in recent years, this statement as is repeated with perseverance to themselves, and with joy to others, a truth when it is recognized as such, when using it as a daily foothold.

So, my family, becomes that of the carpenters, the cobblers, the stone cutters; rather, to be more accurate, I'll should say that my family "returns" to be that of someone who works daily.

It is clear in me the image of my grandmother telling me: "You have big hands because you come from a family of working people, even if I hope you shouldn't ever use".

I remember my father's enthusiasm, when I was a kid would and he showed me houses, bridges, dams, power plants and said "Look! There's also my job". Of that same enthusiasm are daughters these pages.

I don't think to have important things to tell, but I know how is important for me transform into a tale a part of my work, try to build dialogues around the insights, transmit to others my enthusiasm.

I want to clarify that this is not a book of theatre; to be honest, I do not think there could be "the theatre books".

You cannot transpose the theatre out of its confined space and of its measured time; the theatre is not in a book, in a video, in a dialogue.

This is a short book of things that "concern" the theatre, of things that are "around" to the theatre, but that are not theatre.
