Not just a showcase, a personal account in which each theatre professional has the opportunity to broadcast his or her work to an international audience, but also a valid training resource for educators and students, giving added value to the many theatre and set design courses held in design schools and universities.

A new publication, a massive series of books in print and digital versions, created to present a single topic or production. A unique edition that offers extensive documentation written and illustrated by the designer or director himself.

The "Notebooks" are a companion publication to The Scenographer series of monograph books that cover the entire artistic career of a theatre director, set designer or costume designer. SPOTLIGHT ON EACH STAGE PRODUCTION

MARCO FILIBECK Marco Filibeck talks about "QUARTETT"
an Opera by La Fura Dels Baus My personal experience as a light designer is with director Àlex Ollé, who, together with Carlus Padrissa has focussed much of his artistic career in the field of opera. In this issue I introduce the contemporary opera "QUARTETT", which premiered in 2011, commissioned by the Teatro alla Scala.
The story of this one-act play is directly based on Heiner Müller’s play of the same name, which in turn was inspired by Choderlos de Laclos’ well-known "Liaisons Dangereuses".

Tiberi creatively pushes the boundaries of light, and works hands on in discovering the art of light and its potential, while finding innovative ways to operate new technologies in this artform. Tiberi is notably connected with Teatro alla Scala in Milan as Assistant Lighting Designer (2009-2018) through to designing "Dirty Dancing" for London’s West End and international tour.

A clear demonstration of this is the "Pagliacci" staged at the Carlo Felice in Genoa by Cristian Taraborelli, who has elected to work with Augmented Reality. This is the first time this has happened in Italy, and perhaps even abroad, with the exception of similar productions at the Comische Oper in Berlin. Purchase the notebooks € 12 (Print) / € 6 (Digital) BROCKHAUS / SVOBODA Building the "Traviata of Mirrors" While having to choose an image in order to describe the work of Henning Brockhaus by using a synthetic and symbolic approach, my thoughts fly immediately to that huge expanse of mirrored panels that by degrees slope upwards from the stage to become the incredible backdrop of "La Traviata", in one of the most important editions ever staged live, in a joint design project with Josef Svoboda, for the 1992 summer season at the Sferisterio di Macerata in Italy.
