With his "Teatridimare" he is docked in various ports of the Mediterranean and beyond: Francesco Origo, director, actor, skipper and captain of the sailing boat with his company of artists on board died at the age of 62.

Genoese by birth, but Sardinian and Cagliari by adoption, the founder of the Compagnia Càjka has crossed the entire scene of the Italian theater with over forty years of career. Next to him, the most important names of the Italian cultural and theatrical scene: from Carlo Cecchi to Cesare Garboli, from Elsa Morante to Benedetta Buccellato, from Mariangela Melato to Maurizio Crozza, from Massimo Lopez to Valerio Binasco.

In love with Sardinia from an early age, after a long rise of successes and tours throughout Italy, Origo moved to Cagliari in 1996, where he began a new career as a director and acting teacher at the "Crogiuolo", directed by Mario Faticoni. Cagliari, in February 1999, together with the actor Massimo Zordan, founded the cultural association Compagnia Càjka, a research, training and production center for theater and dance.

After just two years it is the turn of the theatrical navigation project "Teatridimare", a unique artistic experience, which in 21 editions will sail for more than 33 thousand miles of sea, with shows in the ports and docks of Sardinia, Corsica, Tuscany , Lazio, Liguria, Calabria, but also beyond, in Norway and Greece.

"I would like to wake up and discover that it is not true", the words of actress Cristina Maccioni. "How will it be done? Your absence is more than a loss, I think how much you could still give to those who would have met you and how much luck I have had so far. Brother, Master of Theater and Sea", the sad comment of the actress Giovanna Gravina.
