edition of "Officina DeiMutamenti", laboratory of specialization on the
contemporary dramaturgy that, in 2002, saw him interpreter of three
Harold Pinter's plays: "The Hothouse", "The glass of the stirrup", "The

experimentation on authors and contemporary playwrights with Pierpaolo
Sepe bringing in scene of Rainer Werner Fassbinder "For A Piece Of
Bread" (2002) and "The American Soldier" (2003), of Alberto Bassetti

End Of The Titanic" (2003), of Giovanni Tesori "In your blood" (2004)
and of Pier Paolo Pasolini "The Divine Mimesis" (2005). Regarding film

Beckett's "Cascando" poem.
