Each In His Own Way

Each In His Own Way (Italian: Ciascuno a suo modo [tʃaˈskuːno a sˈsuːo ˈmɔːdo]) is a 1924 play by Luigi Pirandello.

Each In His Own Way concerns the production of a play based on "real" goings-on: the scandal of the artist Giorgio Salvi's suicide on the eve of his marriage, committed when he discovered that his fiancée, the actress Delia Morello, had begun a short-lived affair with Salvi's brother-in-law Michele Rocca, is ostensibly based on events concerning the sculptor La Vela, the actress Amelia Moreno, and Baron Nuti.

Two characters, Doro Palegari and Francesco Savio, debate her rationale: was it a well-intentioned move to break off a marriage that would have been a mistake, or was it spite against Salvi?

In 1997, the adobe theatre company produced Notions in Motion, a contemporary adaptation of Pirandello's play, written and directed by Jeremy Dobrish.
