The group’s work comprehends both theatre teaching and theatre production (street theatre performances and workshops, social committed theatre, theatre for children and creation of final essays), organization of events (theatre, music and dance), information, dissemination and net-working (conferences and meetings about artistic and social issues).  It is operating internationally, touring all over the world with performances and pedagogical activities.
The groups’ activities has two basic strands: the STREET THEATER and its SOCIAL COMMITMENT ACTIVITY mostly related to pedagogical projects. In the street, the TDM has met cultural and social realities far from commercial theater, and has developed a theatrical technique based on the use of the body and on non-verbal communication that facilitates the encounter of a very heterogeneous public: adults, young people, elderly people, children, of different countries, race and social background.
Today the Teatro Due Mondi counts: 50 productions, 25 special projects, 5 European Projects, 3 of which as lead partner, several dozens of workshops and seminars, over 3,000 performances in international festivals, theaters and streets of 33 countries on 4 continents.
THEATRE PEDAGOGY is conceived as an opportunity of exchange and dialogue with the community: various pedagogical projects in Italy and abroad: courses and workshops for YOUNG generations, PARTICIPATED and MULTICULTURAL workshops. The staff of the Association has developed its own capacity to MEDIATE BETWEEN DIFFERENT CULTURES, to develop processes of integration between the participants and RECREATE A SOLIDARITY COMMUNITY.
Recent projects with "non-actors" want to "give voice" to the weakest or marginalized social groups (“OMSA project” with the dismissed unemployed workers and the “Refugee project” with the refugees hosted in the Faenza territory): for those social groups the theater becomes a means of social communication as well as an effective empowerment tool.
The European Projects conducted in recent years develop the theater activity on an international level as a vehicle for "social inclusion", sharing it with other cultural and social realities of the European Union and other countries.
For over 10 years the TDM has been in contact with foreign communities in the Faenza area. After the first workshops with the refugees arriving from Africa, a “permanent theatre workshop” is born to involve the immigrant communities of Faenza, Italians and refugees hosted in the area. It has carried out awareness and promotion projects with conferences, meetings, shows and concerts (Lo Straniero, 2011, realized with the network of associations for the promotion of integration in Faenza), bringing street shows and theatrical actions realized together with foreign citizens in public spaces.
From 2011 he began a theatrical research investigating more closely the issue of female discrimination: starting from the issue of work (workshops and theatre actions with the female workers fired from the OMSA factory), to the issue of equality by producing performances on the theme of gender violence (VEDRAI, VEDRAI) and on the social role of women (conference-show THOSE REBEL GIRLS).
In Faenza, the Association has carried out numerous cultural and theatrical projects through the “Casa del Teatro”, a theatrical culture center that offers a specialized library, a video library, an audiophile and a theater.

Teatro Potlach has been expressing its artistic identity through the production of indoor as well as outdoor performances, and through pedagogical activities involving a range of expressive and performing techniques, with an ongoing exchange of ideas and techniques with national and international groups as part of the search for a professional approach capable of addressing every audience.
To this day the activity of theatre pedagogy is central in the work of the director and of the actors. Over the years the original core has acquired numerous regular or occasional collaborators met during the many tours and whilst travelling to explore other realities of the theatre.
A development of the ongoing research into the pedagogy, the composition and the space of action has been the production, over the past seventeen years (1991-2011), of many and varied performances of the Città invisibili project. For this Teatro Potlach was able to involve artists and communities from urban centres in Europe and in America. This project continues to reflect and regenerate the foundations of theatrical work outside theatres by transforming the spaces of everyday life through the discovery of the cultural identity of each place and the use of the creative energy of its inhabitants.

TRAIN OF MEMORY. Since 2005, the Train of Memory brings Italian students to visit the former extermination camps in Poland. It is, first of all, a year-long educational path. It focuses upon four keywords, spelling its timetable also: history, intended as analysis of the World War II phenomenon, of its effects on territories and of the lowest points reached in the recent global history. Memory, intended as personalization, encounter and confrontation with the few remaining witnesses, with the entities working in order to preserve memory, and above all with the places impregnate with it. Testimony, that is the encounter with all the situations that at present show the loss of dignity and human rights, in order not to forget that the “must not to let it happen anymore” depends upon collective effort by everyone, at at last commitment, our proposal for all, in the small ambition of our everyday lives, to be able to look out and contribute not to repeat the mistakes of the past. The Train has also a local extension named MEMOBUS.
IL DADO: Since 2005 we work upon the safeguard of a Rom community in Borgaro, nearby Turin.
We assist underage youngsters in the educational field whereas adults are supported in job-hunting and all bureaucratic issues – due also to the recent membership of Romania gained in the EU. In 2008, Il Dado is born: the first experience of auto-restructuring and auto-building addressed to the Rom community in Piedmont.
Other projects are focused on both the youth education and promotion of active citizenship, and on the social promotion of migrant communities, especially of Roma communities in Italy.
