Acting Lab
After teaching for 8 years at the “Accademia Corrado Pani” and attending many seminaries all over Italy, I started to feel the necessity to build my very own first Permanent laboratory.
The main goal of the permanent laboratory “The true sense of being an actor” is to start to question oneself about the real meaning of being an artist. Each artist has a talent but that does not mean anything. The important thing is to understand what and how this talent can work for each individual, how an artist can use it, how an artist can canalize it and focalizeeach strength in order to succeed.
Having the chance to understand what it means to be a creative, free, highly disciplined and focused artist combined with the opportunity to realize how life is interacting, consequently indicates how important life for your art.
Actors must be learn how to break the schemes, learn how to be silent, how to listen, how to judge themselves without underestimating their skills and all the expressive capacities of each and every actor.
