Daniele's passion is to balance and manipulate objects or to find a balance on them, constantly seeking new forms and the ideal center of gravity.

Too many beautiful moments on and off stage to fit into five bullet points. Deep late-night kitchen snack talks with the boys after a long creation day; crying with relief right after leaving the stage with the team after premiering a show; receiving a standing ovation after performing a 3h opera learned in 2 weeks; flying banquine and being carried by an amazing group of people; after lunch mini-raves to get us through intense days of creation — and many more unforgettable dances, songs, games, deep talks, and hours of laughter shared with amazing people in the past, present and future.
