Nicola Bonazzi is a dramaturg, a director, and co-art director (with Andrea Paolucci e Micaela Casalboni) of Company Teatro dell’Argine, based at ITC Teatro, the Municipal theatre of San Lazzaro di Savena (Bologna, Italy).
Over the years, he has written many scripts for the Company, obtaining the attention of the audience in Italy and Europe, and of the Italian critics. In particular, the two texts about Italian emigration Italiani Cìncali (2003, finalist at Ubu Award as Best Italian New Creation) and La Turnata (2005) have contributed to the popularity of the Company and of their interpreter, Mario Perrotta, on a national level.
Since 2012, Bonazzi guides the theatre workshop with “Gli Amici di Luca”, a group involving people with disabilities, which has been founded in the Hospital Bellaria / “Casa dei Risvegli Luca De Nigris” in Bologna.

Both shows were examples of participated theatre, involving professionals and non-professionals of many different ages and background in long projects of co-creation, intercultural and intergenerational dialogue and active citizenship.
