Fo dissociated himself from Communist politics, attacking openly the Party's bureaucracy and failures on ideological work. Speaking of his collaboration with Frana Rame he once said: She has a keen sense of timing and rhythm.

She can spot banality a mile away and at first reading of a piece she can detect those literary qualities that have no place in theater. He performed in hurriedly constructed and staged plays, which were produced in response to specific international, national, or local issues, and used much improvisation and revisions.

Among these were Guerra di popolo in Cile , about the popular revolt in Chile, and Fedayn , about the Palestinian question.
