Your agent for the Eastern European theatre scenes

It all began during my youth, this deep love for theatre life. My primary concern has always been tending to cross-border walks, either on paper or in project form. Gradually, this passion has developed into a profession. 

Are you looking for contacts to the Romanian, Moldavian and Italian theatre scenes? Do you need a polyglot networker and a good organizer for your theatre projects? You have found the right person! Based on your requirements. My strongest desire is to encourage the information exchange and to offer visibility to artists from Eastern Europe. I would be very glad to include you in my network and to accompany you.
