CURRENT MISSION

After the loss of my parents, and some problems with a present relationship, having taught all my life students in drama to be fully self expressed and to know themselves, it is time for me to practice a little of what I preach, go and meet people share..

ABOUT ME

My name is Massimo, which in Italian means “maximum”…. And it is also how I lead my life… to the Max! So my parents were very insightful and I will always be grateful to them.
I am a Piscean, from the Chinese year of the Dragon.
I am Italian and live in North London (UK).
I work as an actor, teacher of drama, theatre director and full time friend.
I am: fun, unique, a visionary, a sensationalist, unconventional, outgoing, fit, funny, dynamic, tidy, full of energy, romantic, youthful, artistic, vulnerable, opinionated, generous, educated, clean, passionate, sensual, challenging, tidy, positive, understanding, solvent, controlling, faithful, creative, demanding, challenging, honest, decadent, lazy, cynical, uninhibited, dominant, intelligent, delusional, and incredibly stupid and naive.

PHILOSOPHY

Although I like innovative experiences, I also love to lounge and chill out just as well, sofa and TV or DVD like everyone else…. Home bliss…. Love it!
I am a people’s person, I get on and like to talk deep and below the surface stuff, sociology and psychology are my interests, people and their motivations, dreams, goals fascinate me.

Interests

I do not go to the pub/bar with or without the boys and get drunk. I do not really get drunk or drink at all. I like to cook and eat well, sleep lots. I like to go to the theatre, concerts, shows, rave parties and even fetish clubs, I like going to the theatre/cinema to see original and different stuff, and not so much Hollywood wood! I like more independent and thought provoking independent films. I also like avant-garde theatre shows (definitely not classical or opera) even though I listen to some classical music and can sing opera.

Teach, Learn, Share

Although I AM opinionated I respect the views of others and very little shocks me or I really disapprove of… We are all prisoners of our own visions of freedom…
Live and let live...
Motto I teach my children..
Live - Love - Listen - Learn - Laugh
