Franca Rame (1929-2013) was an Italian actress, writer, theatre-maker, archivist, and political activist. She is best known today as the principal collaborator of her Nobel Prize-winning husband, playwright, and performer Dario Fo (1926-2016), with the consequence that her crucial contributions to their theatre work have been persistently overlooked. This research reassesses Rame's multi-faceted career and life through the lens of social reproduction theory, reflecting almost sixty years of Italian culture and politics, and her multiple collaborative relationships with Fo, as forms of feminist practice. It does so principally by exploring materials held by the 'Fondazione Fo Rame' in Gubbio and the 'MusaLab Archive of Rame and Fo' in Verona, which Rame herself established. The translation of key autobiographical and theatre texts, including unpublished monologues held by the Archive, and the creation of oral histories through the testimonies of collaborators, friends, and family, elevate Rame's marginalised work. Following the development of each chapter, a series of practice-based interventions will be made available online as podcasts, web pages, videos, and in the form of new texts, workshops, and performances. The interventions will also contribute to the development and promotion of the Rame's Archive, together with exchange activities, including dedicated symposiums and public events exploring Rame's work, organised with the Archive Rame Fo, Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, the Italian Cultural Institute in London and other cultural partners. To date there is very limited literature dedicated to the figure of Franca Rame independently from Dario Fo, and this project represents a feminist reassessment of the politics of collaborative practice in the theatre, and a feminist intervention into the politics of the archive, liberating Rame's silenced voice within theatre history and memory.

弗兰卡·拉梅（意大利语：Franca Rame，1929-2013）是一位意大利女演员、作家、戏剧制作人、档案保管员和政治活动家。今天，她最为人所知的是她的诺贝尔奖获得者、剧作家和表演家达里奥·福（Dario Fo，1926-2016）的主要合作者，结果是她对他们戏剧工作的重要贡献一直被忽视。本研究透过社会再生产理论的透镜，重新评估Rame多面的职业生涯和生活，反映了近六十年的意大利文化和政治，以及她与Fo的多重合作关系，作为女性主义实践的形式。它主要通过探索古比奥的“Fondazione Fo Rame”和维罗纳的“MusaLab Archive of Rame and Fo”（Rame自己建立的）所持有的材料来做到这一点。关键自传和戏剧文本的翻译，包括档案馆保存的未出版的独白，以及通过合作者，朋友和家人的证词创建口述历史，提升了Rame的边缘化工作。在编写完每一章之后，将以播客、网页、视频以及新文本、研讨会和表演的形式在网上提供一系列基于实践的干预措施。这些干预措施还将有助于发展和推广Rame's Archive，以及交流活动，包括与Archive Rame Fo，皇家中央演讲和戏剧学院，伦敦意大利文化研究所和其他文化合作伙伴组织的专门研讨会和公共活动，探索Rame的工作。到目前为止，有非常有限的文献致力于弗兰卡拉姆的数字独立于达里奥福，这个项目代表了女性主义的合作实践在剧院的政治重新评估，和女性主义的干预到政治的档案，解放拉姆的沉默的声音在剧院的历史和记忆。
