A director, playwright and pedagogue of European renown, he has lived to Berlin since 2004. He studied acting at the Teatro Stabile school in Turin directed from Franco Passatore and the Bottega Teatrale in Florence founded from Vittorio Gassman. But it is his work as a director, which he began in 1998, to give him national and European fame, taking his shows to the top theaters and international festivals. His career from director gives him countless awards including: in 2001 the Ubu Award for the Shakespeare Project and Beyond; in 2005 the National Award of the Association of Theatre Critics for La cena de le ceneri, best play of the year; in 2007 the Ubu Award for Studio su Medea best play of the year; in 2012 the Hystrio Award for directing; also in 2012 the Ubu Award for best direction for Un streetcar che si chiama desiderio; in 2013 the Ubu Prize for best direction with Francamente me ne infischio; in 2014 he is a finalist for the Nestroy Prize in Vienna for Die Wohlgesinnten; in 2015 he wins the Premio le Maschere del Teatro for Natale in casa Cupiello; in 2016 the Ubu Prize for Santa Estasi, best play of the year; in 2019 the Ubu Prize for Aminta; in 2021 the Ubu Prize for Hamlet, play of the year. He is the first Italian-trained director and author to be selected for the Berliner Festspiele's Theatertreffen, selection of the ten best German-language shows in 2020. In 2011 he founded his company "stabilemobile." The Venice Biennale chaired from Paolo Baratta appointed him director of the Theater sector for the four-year period 2017/2020. Since 2010, he has been a lecturer and pedagogue at the most important Italian Theater Schools: the Accademia d'Arte Drammatica Silvio d'Amico in Rome, Teatro Stabile in Turin, Piccolo Teatro in Milan, and Scuola Civica Paolo Grassi in Milan.
