Founded in 1975 by Tonino Conte, Emanuele Luzzati and Aldo Trionfo, the Teatro della Tosse is one of Genoa's liveliest venues. The 2026-2027 season runs from 26 September to 14 April 2027, mainly at the Teatri di Sant'Agostino in the old town, as well as at the Teatro del Ponente in Voltri and at La Claque. In the coming weeks: Scemi del villaggio by Fettarappa and Guerrieri from 13 to 15 November, and L'occhio del lupo with Daniel Pennac on stage from 26 to 30 November. From 10 to 13 December comes La ultima vez, a clandestine dinner mixing food and storytelling, and from 26 to 29 December the contemporary circus festival Circumnavigando. The Resistere e Creare dance series continues until 12 December, while La Tosse in famiglia runs all season, with workshops on Sundays. Most shows are in Italian.
