Fabio & Antonino now co-direct the Cie Essevesse. The two friends met 20 years ago backstage at Palermo’s Teatro Massimo, before embarking on a demanding career as repertory dancers and choreographers throughout the world. Drawing on their experience of working with internationally renowned choreographers, they combine their visions and shape their artistic approach.

A friendship that nourishes a dance committed to three axes : 

• the revaluation of the dancing body with a meticulous and technical style ;
• the enhancement of the artistic heritage that inspires all their creative work;
• a political commitment, through their attention to social change on stage and in their socio-cultural projects, driven by a dance that is accessible to all and promotes living together.

Within Essevesse, Fabio and Antonino also cover the role of choreographers, dancers/performers, dance teachers (classical, contemporary, improvisation), art/dance therapists, artistic mediators for EAC (artistic and cultural education), coordinators of European key action 2 projects, researchers and trainers in the development of non-formal education through the use of the arts, in collaboration with professionals from various backgrounds.
