Comedians born in Faenza

Celebrated for its ceramics, Faenza is a historic town in Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy, whose tin-glazed pottery, known as 'faience,' takes its very name from the place. Its workshops have produced fine majolica since the Renaissance. Set on the ancient Via Emilia between Bologna and the Adriatic, it has an elegant neoclassical centre. As Italy's live comedy and cabaret culture expands, towns like Faenza offer historic theatres and venues for touring stand-up performances.
