Exceptionally on Saturday, Magazzino sul Po - which hosts the Shame On Mic festival every Wednesday - opens its doors for a special evening on the occasion of the Nitto ATP Finals.
On stage, two stand-up comedians from the Torino Comedy Lounge team, Giovanni Neri and Gemma Grimoldi, will perform a live, direct and unfiltered show.
Gemma Grimoldi, a Torino resident by adoption, forged by the fire of a thousand battles with public transport, approached stand-up comedy after a poignant farewell to provincial football. Which, to tell the truth, she does not seem to regret too much. Patient, car-owning, highly adaptable. Only one of the above is true.
Giovanni Neri, pseudonym of Michael Nicholas Salvatore Bongiorno, was a television and radio presenter considered one of the founding fathers of television. It would have been a nice bio, but instead we can only say that Giovanni Neri, born in 1984, immediately proved himself unsuited to life. A gold medallist in discomfort, he is constantly looking for new ways to embarrass himself. He does things and sees people but, above all, he does not know how to write biographies.
