The Italian actress, dramaturge and director lives and works in Brussels. She began acting at the age of 14. After studying communication sciences at LUMSA University, she graduated in 2003 from the Accademia Nazionale di Arte Drammatica Silvio D’Amico in Rome. In 2022, while pregnant, she took out Belgian nationality so that her child could benefit from it also – and have two mothers, which is forbidden in Italy today. Gaia Saitta’s work feeds on experiences of transculturality, both human and artistic. She is currently an associate artist at the Théâtre National Wallonie-Bruxelles.
