We are an Italian not-for-profit organisation operating since 1979 in the field of performing arts. We are expert in production and distribution of theatre plays for children and young people.

Our works are mainly focused on meeting through different cultures (see our play Story of a Boy and a Penguin) or on nature protection and environment preservation (see our play Drops). The dramatic structure of our works is characterised by several gags and few words. All the productions are by us.
We have organised several festivals in Italy with hundreds of replicas of our works. Recently we have expanded the sphere of our activity and our works has been performed also in the International Theatre Festival 100, 1000, 1 Million stories of Bucharest (RO) and of 17th International Theater Festival for Children and Young People of Bursa (TR).
               
We would like to participate as partner in a project (1.3.6 – Festivals or 1.2.1 – Cooperation projects or others).
For example, we could participate with a performance of Story of a child and a Penguin, a play for children from 4 to 10 years old. It’s a show without words: gestures and funny gags are sometimes accompanied by the recorded voice of a little girl, which can be easily translated (you can see the whole performance at http://vimeo.com/39105362 – the password to type is: lost).
Otherwise we have plays concerning other issues, e.g. environment preservation.
Furthermore we could also collaborate in projects aimed at education of theatre staff, particularly for the production of plays for children.

On our website you can see the trailers of several other plays: http://www.teatrotelaio.it/video.php
