(C) Luca del Pia

The interview was recorded during Castellucci's visit to Japan at the F/T 09 Autumn. Here the pioneer of the Italian contemporary theatre scene talks to the Associate Professor of Waseda University, Shintaro Fujii, about where he finds inpiration for his works, and what his methods of creation are like. The mise-en-scene of the Avignon version of the trilogy differentiates in many ways from the Tokyo performances. The "Inferno" was shown outdoors in the honor court at the Palais des Papes for one.
A must-see regardless of whether you have seen the Tokyo version or not!
