DISME - Dissemination of the Italian Spectacle Model in Europe is a georeferenced digital archive dedicated to the dissemination and codification processes of Italian performance in Europe during the 18th century. Through original sources, it traces the journeys of theatre architects, stage painters, engineers, impresarios, actors, singers, musicians, dancers, playwrights, and others, demonstrating how the diffusion and adaptation of the Italian spectacle model, along with the migration of its workers, contributed to the creation of a shared language and a vast network of exchanges and relationships, whose cultural legacy has endured to this day. An interactive map allows the scientific results to be connected in a strategic and innovative way.
