Anitelli was in another band called "Madalena 19". With the intention of saving money to record an album, he quit the band and went to the U.S, where he worked as a waiter. It was there where he first came into contact with Hermann Hesse's novel Steppenwolf, in which the protagonist runs into a man advertising "The Magical Theater". Anitelli took inspiration from this and named the album he was working on "The Magical Theater" as a homage to the book.MTV UK (2012) http://www.mtv.co.uk/artists/o-teatro-magico
