Comedians born in Sant'Angelo Lodigiano

Sant'Angelo Lodigiano sits southwest of Lodi among the Lombard lowlands, a small town built up around the imposing Bolognini Castle, a medieval fortress in good repair that now holds museums devoted to rural life and local history. Dairy farms and cereal fields from the Po plain surround it, and Milan lies within easy reach without disturbing its quiet, provincial pace.

A town of this size depends on regional touring circuits for entertainment, and as Italian comedy keeps expanding, nearby venues increasingly bring stand-up to local audiences, including comedian Brenda Lodigiani, born here.
