Appunti intorno al Teatro Vagante

Giuliano Scabia interweaves memory and critical discourse to delineate a path, that encompasses all phases of his Teatro Vagante: from applied theatre in the schools at the beginning of the Seventies, at the dawn of ‘animazione teatrale’, to his work at the University of Bologna, an organic continuation ofthose experiments. From poetry to street theatre, from the planning of the written page to the breath of oral speech, from University halls and theatrical buildings to the trekking into the nature, day and night, one tale emerges, where pedagogy interweaves with life and all its connections. Writing is being tested, each time, in different contexts -be them a school, a rural village, a urban neighborhood, apath- looking after a “poetry of lively impetus”.
