Storytelling and theater
These classes are designed to play with your children' stories and transform them into cute, nice, funny, short plays performed entirely according to their ideas and creations. Children are encouraged to tell a story and, under the guide of the teacher, re-telling it by involving everyone through improvisation. Each class will be devoted to create stories by listening to music, by telling and re-telling the stories the children know best, by creating a theatrical space and by performing with the help of different media. There will be a performance at the end of the semester.

KIT 2009 - Wanna help?
As already announced, KIT is preparing two very special productions, based on the work of two giants of Italian Theatre and Literature: Franca Valeri and Dino Buzzati.
She is almost 89 year-old and is still acting on stage; He left a unforgattable trace in the world of literature... their work is simply a masterpiece!
If you'd like to help these productions, read below how and where to send contributions! Your help is very important to us!
Tosca e le Altre by Franca Valeri
After so many requests, Emilia and Iride will be back in a full production of Tosca e le Altre by the one and only and greatest Franca Valeri. The production will be presented in late Spring 2009.The performance will be presented in Italian with English subtitles. On stage, your truly Laura and Marta!
Women Without Escape: Three Monologues by Dino Buzzati
Sola in Casa - Spogliarello - L'Orologio
Dino Buzzati, the "Italian Kafka", wrote these monologues in the late '50s but there is nothing of the "dolce vita" in these women trapped into their lives like passionate and proud victims of a fate they can't control. Solitude, magic, absurd, wait and death are the dominant themes of these ironic and at the same time dramatic monologues.This is a Double Theatre production: back to back, the English translation, followed by their original, evocative Italian.
