TRA LE RIGHE (BETWEEN THE LINES)

Tra le Righe (Between the lines) is a project carried out in cooperation with the Andersen magazine and the Sarvego Festival and aiming at offering pupils from primary and lower secondary school the opportunity to read and write literature on topics related to Sustainability and Active, Responsible Citizenship.
Acting as both readers and authors, children are able to explore and experiment with the languages of literature for children and adolescents, creating new contents and creatively sharing their emotions, ideas, and projects for a better society.

LO SPETTACOLO SIAMO NOI! (WE ARE THE REAL SHOW!)
As part of this project - developed in close cooperation with school teachers - pupils have a chance to learn about a wide range of theatre productions (produzioni culturali) and, helped by playwrights and actors, try themselves at writing and putting on stage real theatre pièces on civic education topics. This way, they become the authors, directors, and set & lighting designers of a performance staged by professional actors.
