Antonio Fava, renowned actor, author, director, teacher, musician (flute), composer and mask maker, takes preeminence as the principal presenter and performer at our inaugural Australasian Commedia dell'Arte Festival. Antonio has directed shows and performed his Commedia dell'Arte all over the world and has also collaborated and taught at conservatories and universities internationally.

From Reggio Emilia in Italy, he founded and directs the International School of the Comic Actor where each year 70 to 80 young professional actors from all over the world come to study.  2009 marks the 25th anniversary of the Scuola Internazionale dell’Attore Comico.

He also teaches mask making.  For Fava, making masks is like enjoying a great meal - a wonderful and satisfying experience.

At the festival, you can be part of his 2 -part workshop. Don't miss this opportunity to be taught by the maestro himself.
