Leo De Berardinis artista-teorico

Abstract

Leo de Berardinis was an allround man of the theatre: an extraordinary actor, director, dramaturge, and pedagogue. Among the many aspects of his theatrical work, it is his theory which, to this day, has not been adequately highlighted. And yet his writings and interventions demonstrate how he was a true artist-theorist and follow in an unbroken line from those of the director-pedagogues of the 20th century in terms of their intellectual significance, ethical intensity, and civic commitment.
