From 8 to 12 July 2026, SRC hosts an intensive advanced-training workshop led by one of the most authoritative artists on the contemporary theatre scene.
From 8 to 12 July 2026, Scuola di Recitazione della Calabria welcomes Danio Manfredini—award-winning author, performer and theatre educator—for a five-day intensive workshop for students and alumni of the School.
The workshop takes place daily from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm at the Polo Solidale per la Legalità “F. Vinci”, Viale Merano s.n.c., Cittanova (RC).
THE WORKSHOP
Rooted in Manfredini's teaching practice, the workshop explores the body as a place of listening and expression, together with voice work and emotional memory.
Participants will work on memorised texts from the classical and contemporary theatre repertoire, bringing them into the performance space under his direct guidance.
