Theatre @DraperHall is curated by its Artistic Director Stefania Bochicchio, CEO of Infallible Productions, member of the EdFringe society and UK co-director of the ITI (International Theatre Institute), the largest arts organisation in the world.

ITI was created on the initiative of the first UNESCO Director General, Sir Julian Huxley, and the playwright and novelist, JB Priestly in 1948, just after the Second World War, and at the beginning of the Cold War, when the Iron Curtain divided the East and the West. Its aim is to promote communication and understanding between people though the practice and performance of the Arts.
