"A history of theatre and of the ways in which it is presented and done; a book of actors and artists, but also of theatre technique and philosophy." - Anna Bandettini , in: La Repubblica "An epic book to be read with a thirst for knowledge and as an explosion of analysis and self-determination." - Alfonso Amendola , in: Alfabeta 2 "A guerrilla handbook - useful not so much to those who want to remake yesterday's theatre (what we believe to be theatre). It will be much more useful to those who are inventing the theatre of tomorrow." - Oliviero Ponte di Pino , in: Ateatro "This book is truly marvelous, an inspiration." - Frank Camilleri , University of Malta " The Five Continents of Theatre passes from the secrets and tools of the trade to the description of situations and socio-cultural frameworks in which the actors' community enters into relation with the community of spectators." - Raimondo Guarino , in: L'indice "A book to navigate in time and space through what surrounds, justifies, makes possible the actor's art - and accelerates it. A journey through the real state of theatres.
The theatre as building as machine as business as dream as vocation as need to know and transform." - Massimo Marino , Brambilla Principessa "[T]his book.is an extraodinary tool of knowledge about theatre and actor's material culture for anyone." - Ilaria Salonna-Rogozinska , in: Culture and Society "It is very rare, if ever, that we witness such a surprising quantity of valuable and astonishing illustrations accumulated in one publication. In their own sense, these illustrations represent a particular way of looking and researching in the theatre, and they reveal an engaging comprehension of the imaginative as a cognitive and sensorial skill in the actor's craft.[w]hilst drawing attention to the physical materiality of the actor's culture, the reader becomes aware furthermore of what, conventionally, is not seen as a material for the actor. This making of the invisible visible contains its own magical logic." - Annelis Kuhlmann , in: Nordic Theatre Studies.
