I've been acting and doing workshops in TEV Youth for five years.While working on comedies and on tragedies I have experienced the sense of freedom that acting can give you, whether performing on stage or improvising in a workshop. I guess the method we followed during these years was aimed towards a personal exploration of ourselves and the experience of collective dynamics in order to get a deeper understanding of human beings, both as a source of inspiration and personal catharsis. All this led to a true means of expression on stage...and a liberation of our personalities in real life.' (Leo Vertunni )
