Biography

Federico Galliano is an Italian actor and theater director. He pursued studies in theatrical and cinematic arts in Genoa and Milan under the guidance of Laura Curino, Vanni Valenza, Mauro Pirovano, Angelo Orlando and Simona Garbarino. Galliano has been the lead performer in national theater tours, spanning from classical theater works (Shakespeare; Molière) to literary ones (Odyssey; Orlando Furioso), from characters of religious iconography (Jesus; Saint Francis), to performances on contemporary and social topics. As an educator, he taught theater classes at the Cassini Institute in Genoa alongside Mauro Pirovano. He has also starred in international commercials (Acqua di Parma, Dietor, Grandi Navi Veloci, Campari). In recent years, his focus has been on re-exploring the heritage of the dialectal theatrical tradition, performing in plays from the repertoire of Gilberto Govi. For years, he has been a cultural and cinematic advocate in Liguria.
