Alessandra Celesia trained at the \u00c9cole internationale de th\u00e9\u00e2tre Jacques Lecoq in Paris. She worked as an actress and director throughout Europe and then launched a career as an author and director. In 2018, she created the company Curious Industries<\/strong>, which explores the boundary between the world of theater and documentary filmmaking by creating hybrid productions, “live films” in which the protagonists are on stage as well as on screen.<\/p>\n

Alessandra Celesia has signed several documentaries, including Luntano<\/em> (2006), The Belfast Bookseller<\/em> (2012), and Miraggio all’italiana<\/em> (2013). At FIT 2018 she presented Anatomia del miracolo<\/em> (2017), a work that confronts devotion to the “wounded Madonna” a very particular image of Roman Catholic iconography, idolized especially in Naples.<\/p>\n

Among her major theatrical successes is Mucche ballerine<\/em> (2005) where the years of the German occupation and the Italian Resistance are told from the curious perspective of a fighting cow reduced to hiding. Still at FIT 2018, along with her film work, she presented the documentary theatre piece Heidi Project<\/em> (read more and watch the after-show talk<\/span><\/a>) an autobiographical tale at the border between two worlds: film and performing arts.<\/p>\n

At the end of 2022, Alessandra Celesia \/ Curious industries’ latest theater production, Licheni<\/em>, debuted in Aosta, a work which continues on the path of exploring an intimate universe in close connection with the landscape, a specific landscape that is part of the author’s childhood: the Italian Alps.<\/p>\n
