« Masks on Stage » is a biennal project sponsored by the EACA (European Agency for Culture) in the 2007-2011 program, with Teatrovivo (Italy) as leader project.
Ten actors from five countries (Italy, Germany, France, Czech Republic and Spain) receive an high level professional training and the opportunity of creating and spreading shows of Urban Theatre, Children's Theatre and Latin Comedy at Festivals and Theatres of European Union countries.
For the year 2010 - 2011 they have been set up two shows, "Pinocchio"(genre: Urban Theatre, directed by Luca Cairati) and "Casina" (genre: Latin comedy, directed by: Cristiano Roccamo), representing a summary of the specialization work done by the actors in the first year of the project.
The shows have been presented in festivals and theaters in Europe.
The Company
The word "company" means a group of people who come together for whatever reason.
In Italy there are companies called “di giro”, a group of individuals who sometimes meet each others.
Or we can talk about "companies" in some specialized fields, such as air, rail or theatrical.
And the first theater companies were born with the commedia dell'arte, and the need to get together to work better.
"Masks On Stage" is all this and more: it is a group of people that in the name of Europe and of the mutual cultural respect are creating something that goes beyond the fences of reciprocal nations.
And the journey is just began ...
