Compagnia Baccalà

After meeting at school, Camilla Pessi and Simone Fassari went their separate ways and launched careers in various circuses and cabarets all over the world. However, in 2004, when Simone’s usual partner was unavailable for a tour, he contacted his former classmate. To their surprise, they discovered a new sense of artistic and human complicity when working together. Together they perfected their characters and set out to travel the world.

In 2008, Valerio Fassari, theatre artist, musician and good friend, joined the company for performances at major international circus festivals. Working with Valerio, Camilla and Simone have developed the theatrical dimension of their performances, bringing together influences from theatre, circus, and their own creations. In 2010, Louis Spagna directed the company’s first original full-length creation, Pss Pss, a show gleefully received and acclaimed all over the world. By 2017, the show had won 14 international prizes.
