Abstract

The denomination Creole-transcultural theater was coined by the Italian researchers Maria Cristina Maureci and Marta Niccolai in 2015. It has been used to name a type of theatrical work and expression that combines collaborations between foreigners and locals, without categorically ranking or differentiating the contributions that both make in pursuit of artistic and social objectives. This occurs both at the level of dramaturgy and the creation and staging of the shows of various companies in the world. One of them is Cantieri Meticci, a Bologna company that has been working this modality since 2005. Initially, the company focused only on cooperative work with refugees and political asylum seekers from some reception centers in Bologna. However, perceiving the need for a more cross-cultural relationship between immigrants and locals, she began to welcome Italian actors of all ages and origins.
