We’re back after the summer break, and we couldn’t think of a better way to start September than by sharing a project that means a lot to us.
This summer marked the fourth edition of Teatro Verde, created by our sister project Creando si Impara at Feudo San Pietro in Sicily.
Teatro Verde is a creative experience centred around theatre, building the stage and scenery, and exploring the relationship between children and the space around them. Through acting, making and playing, they become part of the story while learning to see their surroundings as a source of inspiration. 🎭🌿
But there is another aspect that makes this project particularly meaningful: local and international children take part together. They create, play and learn side by side, naturally exchanging languages, perspectives and experiences. It is a small but powerful example of the connection that can be created between a local community and those who travel to discover it — encouraging mutual respect, curiosity and enrichment.
This year, the children brought to life "Il Pavone e il Gatto sul Piedistallo", an original story created and illustrated by artist Emanuela Ravida , who also leads the creative workshops of Creando si Impara. The story became the starting point for the children to interpret its characters and imagine and create the scenery together through eco-art and hands-on experimentation.
And the setting is an essential part of the experience. Feudo San Pietro is a place where nature, culture, craftsmanship and creativity come together — making it much more than simply a venue for the project.
For us at Italian Special Occasions, supporting Teatro Verde also reflects the way we think about tourism and events: creating meaningful connections between visitors and local communities, and experiences that leave something positive behind for everyone involved.
Congratulations and thank you to Creando si Impara, Emanuela, and everyone who contributed their time, creativity and passion to another successful edition.
