Dear KIT Friends,
Happy New Year! Buon Anno! It's only January and we are already working on many events, classes, performances, fundraising... it's exciting and a bit crazy!
As you can see below, our theater consulting division has the honor to collaborate with Teatro delle Albe for their upcoming performance at La MAMA Rumore di Acque (Noise in the Waters).
Also, In Scena! 2014 is already in the making. We have many great news that make the Festival looking great already!
Last but not least, our season is getting fuller and fuller, and we are very happy about that. What will make us REALLY happy is to see all of you coming and enjoying our productions. When you do, please make sure to say CIAO after the show.
CIAO,
Laura&KIT

They have released several albums, and performed in Italy, Austria, Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, Croatia, England, France, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Indonesia, Japan, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Switzerland, Tunisia, Uruguay, and Uzbekistan.
