IN CONVERSATION WITH: Mattia Sedda

Reading Time: 2 minutesCHOIN is inspired by the pig call farmers use in Sardinia—“CHOIN, CHOIN!”—direct, ridiculous, and honest. It follows a Sardinian guy who comes to London (with broken English, a suitcase full of dreams, and a very questionable sense of class) to become a professional actor. He ends up in restaurant jobs, awkward auditions, and slowly builds his ultimate showcase—full of Shakespeare, slapstick, theatrical chaos, and a few too many ideas.  We sat down and had this conversation with its creator, Mattia.
