European Theatre Lab with Renato Curci

February 1 - 09:00 - 18:00 CET

Led by Renato Curci Forum Theater Techniques and Theatrical Direction

Renato Curci is an Italian author, actor, comedian, and director, as well as a member of SIAE (Italian Society of Authors and Publishers). His theatrical journey began at the age of seventeen and expanded in Paris, where he deepened his knowledge of various theatrical techniques, including cabaret, mime, grammelot, and visual/puppetry theater.

In 2011, his book Teatro di liberazione was published by Edizioni La Meridiana, in which he shared his theatrical knowledge and practices. Renato is also active on social media, with a presence on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, where he shares updates on his performances and artistic projects.

His work spans theater, cinema, and television, with a strong commitment to social causes, using art as a tool for expression and liberation.

Workshop Structure

The workshop will focus on three fundamental aspects:

  1. Transmission of Forum Theater Techniques Over two days, participants will be introduced to the essential techniques for creating Forum Theater performances. This involves staging real-life situations featuring injustice, followed by audience improvisation aimed at altering the story. This process serves as a “virtual rehearsal” to inspire and prepare for real-world change.
  2. Live Demonstration A short performance from Renato Curci’s repertoire will be presented as a practical example of the techniques explored.
  3. Experiential Reflection The workshop will provide an opportunity to reflect on theatrical techniques and direction used during a recent experience in the Medina Gounass neighborhood of Dakar, conducted in April and May of this year.

This workshop is open to everyone interested in exploring the power of theater as a means of transformation and collective expression.

The event is free of charge and will be held in Italian.
