It supports the work of young Italian and international artists, which it involves in the productions and which helps in the definition of production and circulation strategies in full respect of the autonomy of their authoring process.
Among the direction of site specific projects, of theater in the landscape, of immersive theater or of performing art in museums, we mention: Beyond the wall (2002), Scirocco ballad of travel (2004), In-boscati # 1- # 2- # 3- # 4 (2011-2012-2013-2014), Instant Berlin (2014), Landing_an Odyssey (2015), Instant Leros (2016), The Professor and the Siren (2017), Performing Frida (2018), Masters Trees (2019) , Masters Trees Kids(2020), R 500 Safari nel labirinto urbano (2020), Amleto. Una questione personale (2021), Hansel e Gretel (2022), Just walking (2024). He has directed shows and site specific performances in Berlin, Helsinki, St. Petersburg, Opole, Montpellier, Bratislava and other important European cities.
His production, which has always been attentive to the landscape, unconventional staging, contamination with dance, music and poetry and, in recent years, also the use of digital in its various forms, has over time become more and more radically directed toward the research and experimentation of new languages capable of restoring to theater the ethical and transformative necessity that is historically its gravitational center. Starting with theater, he has specialized in urban and nature-based performance practices, immersive theater and site-specific performances.

Anna Fascendini began her training at the European Course for Actors and Directors of Pontedera Teatro, then CSRT (Center for theatrical experimentation and research). In 1998 he founded - together with Giulietta de Bernardi and Michele Losi - ScarlattineTeatro. The company's first productions grew out of an important experience of theater and community work in postwar Kosovo, in collaboration with the World Immigration Organization (IOM).Alongside his theatrical work in the social sphere, he has always dedicated himself to childhood by conducting workshops in schools and producing shows dedicated to children.

He began to take a professional interest in very early childhood thanks to his meeting with Bruna Pellegrini and her theatrical project TEATRO GIOCO NIDO, an experience from which the show Sisale was born, presented at the Vimercate festival in 2007. It was the following year that she collaborated on a French project entitled Grandir a petits pas by the Amphiteathre of Pont De Claix in Grenoble. The project involved a period of theatrical research with children between the ages of 0 and 3 years and later the production of a show dedicated to them: Scatenati was born, which will have the good fortune to circulate in many international reviews and festivals. Since then, the work with and for very young children has declined into several theater productions including Buio, Nina e il mare and Corpo lib(e)ro, in co-production with other Sardinian realities, 3 PIGS Cosa è casa (all Campsirago Resi-denza productions) and Sig.ra Rossetta production of IsMascareddas.In 2018, as a result of a European master's degree on intergenerational learning, it develops a special focus on work with children aged 2 to 5 and the dependent elderly, including those with Alzheimer's disease. The course that emerges is named The Sky to Earth.

The world’s soundscapes constantly respond to their surroundings and inhabitants. My designs recreate these dynamic reactions with careful research and craft. On stage, screen, or the airwaves, my primary goal is always to use sound to support storytelling and viscerally transport the listener to a new emotion, time, and place. I have worked in lots of different areas of sound engineering and production, such as: Executive producer for Indie Bands, Tour ;anager, Supervising Sound Editor/Mixer, Boom Op, Field Recordist, Audio Editor, Foley Artist, Live Mixer/Sound Designer for Musical Theatre, and more. I have a bachelor in Event Organization at Urbino University (ITA) and studied Music Composition & Theory in different schools which gave me my sharp ears, also participated at the “Artissima Experimental Academy” in Turin, in the DAF Structure project. Installation conceived by Jan St. Werner (Mouse on Mars) in collaboration with the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg, where he teaches Interactive Media / Dynamic Acoustic Research (DAF).. last but not least, I am also a company member of Pleiadi and ScarlattineTeatro in Campsirago Residenza, where we make joyful and profound live theatre all year round (both as an actor, and a sound designer). In my works, through the use of electronic and electroacoustic instruments, sound oscillates between gloomy atmospheres and obsessive rhythms. The goal is a total de-structuring of the song form in favor of an abstract musical form, through an unintentional compositional method and finding oneself in the role of involuntary improviser. Each performance is shaped by the environment that surrounds it and is therefore unpredictable and unrepeatable.

Luca Maria Baldini finds his own path in the relation between music and images. In a not -labelling dimension, it ranges from electronics to postrock / shoegaze, passing through minimalism and neo-classical. In his creative process the sound came out of images ,to starts then living its own life. His songs become soundtracks without movies, where each listener has the space to recreate a visual imagenary in his own way.
Baldini composes soundtracks for films, installations and performances. He presented his work in national and international galleries and museums and he played in Italian/European stages. He creates commissioned site-specific soundtracks. His research is focused on the use of melody through the fusion of electronic music, analog instruments and sound design.

Movement artist, born in 1987 from Hungarian mother and Italian father, she grows up between Austria and Italy. Curious about ethology since she is a child, she studies zooanthropology and attends the University of Biology aspiring to realise the dream of working in contact with nature.

But she then meets and falls in love with the physical nature of theatre.

She continues her training as a theatre performer with Philippe Genty and Mot de Tête Compagnie in Paris, and becomes passionate about material manipulation, object theatre, dance and Bunraku puppetry. In 2016 she creates and performs in "GOOSE" by the Italian-Swiss company La Cavalcade en Scène, based at Théâtre du Concert, Neuchâtel.
In 2018, she constructs and performs "Blaubart", a figure peepshow for a single spectator at time.
Since 2019, she has been studying martial arts through Khala Yoga, a special discipline that combines yoga and martial arts. In 2021 she founded Inmove System Project on Lake Como, a project that aims to create spaces for sharing, studying and deepening movement through multidisciplinary, complementary and integrative proposals and approaches.
She is a certified teacher in dance pedagogy at the Holistic Dance Institute in Vienna, specialised in Contact Improvisation and Authentic Movement. She facilitates expressive and functional movement classes for groups of elders, adults, adolescents and children. She continues to train in Italy and abroad, following her passion and contributing to project realities that favour authentic research for the growth and awareness of the individual in the community such as Pioneers of Change (AU - DE), Inmove System Project (ITA) and Campsirago Residenza.

Sjoerd Wagenaar is based in the North of the Netherlands, in a rural area. His work is usually site-specific and site generic and is working with different art disciplines and different science faculties international.
The work can be described as site-specific art/theatre in a socially engaged manner. Every site and every location has a history and specific features. The first focus lays on the people who ‘own' the environment. These people are the key to the specific stories, the conflicts, the celebrations, and ceremonies. With every new project, We start off as an outsider. Over the years we have developed a special approach to bridge this gap: Integrate and infiltrate. In this approach, they are working on a site and trying to find a (temporary) place in the community. By making use of the local artistic skills and fascinations, curiosity awakens.
The fascinations are often not ‘theatrical’ in an obvious way. Agriculture, landscape, food, nature, craftsmanship. Topics like these require a different kind of research for finding the stories which have a ‘theatrical' quality. Therefore, we doing research on people in a variety of professions. Sometimes we even learn the specific skills of those professions. We continuously keep confronting ourselves with the reality of their subjects, trying to find the ‘true’ stories. And we also keep developing new site-specific (artistic) methods, and new approaches to work with. We select the stories and materials allowing to create an event which is specific and universal at the same time. The Artwork / Theater works becomes an event where an audience without knowledge of the specific site can enjoy the experience.
