The Magic of Eduardo De Filippo

Eduardo De Filippo is one of the most influential Italian artists of the 20th century. His comedy, Grand Magic tells the story of a has-been master illusionist who is reduced to performing magic for money at a seaside resort. However brilliance, not trickery, made Eduardo the icon he is. Learn more with Donato Santeramo, co-adaptor and dramaturge of Grand Magic and Teresa Lobalsamo, Professor of Italian Studies at the University of Toronto in an engaging conversation moderated by actor Beck Lloyd.
