Lorenzo Gianmario Galli is a professional street and stage performer.

He was born on the 1st of July 1980, in Turin, Italy.

In 2005 he got a degree in Design / Architecture (Polytechnic University of Turin).

Even if he has been playing guitar since childhood, he started to think seriously about performing only during University. 
So, he started to study Opera Singing, Violin, Theatre and also moved his first steps on the stage with some local opera and theatre companies.
After University, while working in several social projects, he attended a 3 years long intensive theatre class, with Lecoq method, in the A.T.F. school by Philip Radice.

​

Since 2010 he has been street-performing, with his One-Man-Band show. In the last eight years, this show has been played in more than 200 events and festivals worldwide, in 25 countries.

In many situations, Lorenzo used the stage name of GALiRò, when he plays this One-Man-Band character

Lorenzo lived in Granada, Spain (2011-2012), in Seoul, South Korea (2012-2013), in Leipzig, Germany (2013-2014) and went back to live in Turin in 2016. 

Aside of his One-Man-Band performance he has been working for several other projects about music, and puppet theatre.
