OGR Comedy Sessions returns to the stage at Snodo on May 12 for a new evening of bold, unfiltered laughs. Headlining the night is Giulia Cerruti, a comedian and actress from Turin, who brings to the stage her hilarious stand-up set, “Monologue of a Woman with Pecorino” – a piece written by a woman on the brink of thirty, grappling with a maternal instinct as overwhelming as it is real. With biting wit and sharp irony, Giulia Cerruti delivers a brutally honest take on society’s expectations of women—navigating failed relationships, judgmental relatives, and the unspoken tension of family dinners. It’s comedy that’s both thought-provoking and laugh-out-loud funny.

Raw, uncensored entertainment. OGR Comedy Sessions is the series curated by OGR Torino, showcasing the very best of stand-up talent hand-picked by Torino Comedy Lounge in collaboration with The Comedy Club.
Snodo, OGR’s food & drink hub, transforms into a vibrant stage where anything can happen. With irreverent jokes and signature cocktails, the audience is treated to a one-of-a-kind night—an experience of pure fun, laughter, connection, and creative flair. All without taking things too seriously.

GIULIA CERRUTI
Giulia Cerruti was born in Turin on October 11, 1993. After attending the Preparatory Course at the Teatro Stabile di Genova in 2015, she graduated in 2017 from the Shakespeare School, an advanced acting program led by Jurij Ferrini. She studied under leading figures such as Anna Laura Messeri, Massimo Mesciulam, Enrico Bonavera, Francesco Origo, Valerio Binasco, Cristina Pezzoli, Gabriele Vacis, Alberto Giusta, Marco Lorenzi, Nicola Pannelli, and Vladimir Olshansky. Since 2017, she has curated the summer theatre season at Cascina Duc in Grugliasco. Alongside her acting career, she has also been teaching acting since 2016. In 2018, she co-founded the theatre company Crack 24 with fellow graduates from the Shakespeare School. For the past three years, she has been a regular cast member on “Stand Up Comedy” and “CC Live”, both aired on Comedy Central (Sky).

TORINO COMEDY LOUNGE
Founded in 2017, the project revived Italian stand-up comedy in the Piedmont region, bringing back live comedy after years dominated by television humor. Today, it is one of the most important comedy events in Italy, with hundreds of live shows and theater and video productions. Three essential factors: quality, comedian well-being, and audience focus. In addition to hosting major names like Luca Ravenna and Michela Giraud, Torino Comedy Lounge is a breeding ground for new talent, supporting the next generation of comedians.

THE COMEDY CLUB
The Comedy Club is an agency producing live shows and videos with the mission of spreading stand-up comedy to a wide audience through live tours of top comedians across Italy and Europe, promoting professional comedians online, and nurturing new comic talent with workshops, open mics, and stand-up comedy labs. Among its productions is Tintoria, Italy's first comedy podcast, hosted by Daniele Tinti and Stefano Rapone.
