The Accademia Internazionale di Teatro regularly offers its students and graduates a series of training meetings with actors and directors of great standing in the Italian theatre and film scene, who have distinguished themselves for their innovative approach to the performing arts.
Among the protagonists of these events are Lino Musella, the company Carrozzerie Orfeo, Carlo De Ruggieri, Oscar De Summa, Michele Sinisi and Massimiliano Civica.

The upcoming events scheduled are:

• Giuseppe Marini, director, on 26 January at 2:00 pm
• Fabiana Iacozzilli, director and playwright, on 9 February at 10:00 am
• Francesco Villano, actor, Ubu Award 2023, on 23 February at 11:30 am

First-hand knowledge of the experiences and the difficulties overcome by these professionals offers a valuable tool for developing awareness and readiness in managing one's own career path. At the same time, these meetings encourage critical reflection on the evolution of contemporary theatre and cinema, prompting participants to develop their own original artistic language.
The activities are part of the “Third Mission” programme, an initiative that supports A.I.T. students and graduates in entering the professional sector, providing them with practical tools and networks of contacts to face their working future with confidence and skill.

The Accademia Internazionale organises prestigious workshops with directors and actors of national and international renown. These events offer a unique training opportunity, through dialogue with the great masters of cinema and theatre. The workshops are aimed both at current students and at former students who wish to perfect their skills. Through practical and theoretical lessons, participants deepen their techniques of acting, directing and staging. The masterclasses include moments of dialogue with the professionals, sharing of experiences and advice on the craft.

The upcoming events scheduled are:

• Giancarlo Sepe on 15 and 16 March 2025, at the "Latina" venue in via Camillo Porzio
• Daniele Fabbri on 17 and 18 May 2025, at the "San Lorenzo" venue in via dei Piceni

In December 2023, Emmanuel Gallot Lavallée (founder of the A.I.T.), Fiammetta Bianconi and Silvia Marcotullio (founders and directors of the A.I.T.) published a work that gathers and systematises the methodologies applied in the Academy's educational and pedagogical path, titled Manuale dell'Accademia Internazionale di Teatro. This text is presented as a genuine journey, through the various stages of the learning process, which leads the actor to develop their own artistic sensibility while combining technique and expressive ability. An interdisciplinary approach with particular attention to group dynamics, to the actor's physical training, and to the use of voice and body. Published by Cartman Edizioni, this volume is part of the Academy's Research and Development activities, which for years has been committed not only to training new generations of actors and directors, but also to reflecting on and innovating teaching methods in theatre pedagogy.
