About Paolo Rossi
Paolo Rossi (born 22 June 1953) is an Italian actor, writer, comedian, singer-songwriter and television personality. Born in Monfalcone, Gorizia, he graduated as a chemical expert, then moved to Milan where he debuted on stage in 1978 in Dario Fo's Histoire du Soldat. After being a member of the stage company "compagnia dell'Elfo", he began signing numerous theatrical monologues and stage plays of critical success that were paired in their style with the Commedia dell'arte and the work of Brecht and Moliere, and for which he was referred to as "an Italic middle way between Dario Fo and Lenny Bruce".
Rossi is active on television, in successful variety shows such as Su la testa and Il laureato, and in films, in which he debuted in 1986. His multifaceted career also includes music: since the early 1990s he has released several albums and collaborated with artists and groups including Enzo Jannacci, Emir Kusturica, Vinicio Capossela and Modena City Ramblers. He entered the competition at the Sanremo Music Festival in two editions, in 1994 and in 2007, and in 1996 he won a Silver Ribbon for the screenplay of Leone Pompucci's comedy film Camerieri.
