The Braw and The Brave is a podcast about Rilke and their passions! Episode 237 is in conversation with Lorenzo Novani the writer of the ‘chip shop play’ Cracked Tiles and co-writer of the stage version of Hilda De Felice’s WW2 story Loving the Enemy. Both shows are regularly performed in Scotland and beyond, with recent performances in Milan and Tuscany. Lorenzo is also a multi-faceted performer: a stage actor, a voice actor, and a professional magician, with full membership of the prestigious Magic Circle. He is currently developing a show called Robert Burns & the Italian Poet in which he will play Robert Burns for a second time, after having played the national bard in the 2022 audiodrama, the Lady and the Poet. His other upcoming project is Shakespeare: Master of the Mind, a psychological magic show celebrating the genius of Shakespeare, which will be performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Lorenzo gained a wealth of creative experience in amateur theatre whilst studying Writing for Stage & Screen and the Art of Acting at Strathclyde University. This laid the foundation from which he now writes and performs his own professional work.
