He has taught or collaborated with a wide range of theatre luminaries, such as Jaques Lecoq and Dario Fo, among others. Maestro Fava also designs and constructs leather masks for use at his school and in his performances, and his masks are in various private collections, museums and cultural institutions in numerous countries.
