The author, Raffaele De Ritis
Impostor of the international stage arts, he is said out from a noble estinguished family of Southern Italy. By childhood he attempted escapes to the strolling life. Without refusing an academic theatrical education in Rome and Paris, he began to earn his life in the frequentation of carny barkers, crocodile hypnotists, quick-change virtuosos, aerialists, actors, ballet étoiles.
Nobody knows why and when producers began trusting in his directorial services, spreading his staging signature around the globe: from Europe's opera houses; to American sanctuaries as Big Apple Circus or Cirque du Soleil. It is in his hands that Ringling bros. , Disney or Dragone dared to put show concepts ; and the Princess Grace Theatre of Monte Carlo or Spoleto Festival trusted for magic events or Shakespeare stagings.
He wrote books and dictionaries about theatre, circus and magic; his signature infestated in the last 20 years major international circus periodicals. Mentalism, training of escapologists, academic lecturing on silent movies are other ways to assure his existence besides writing and directing.
Mixing forgotten Martini recipes and tracking theatrical memorabilia are his beloved pastimes. www.raffaelederitis.com
