Giorgio Bixio (actually Lazzaro Angelo Bisio ; born August 2, 1912 in Genoa , † September 25, 1984 in Rome ) was an Italian actor .
Life
Bixio gained his first experience as an actor on the amateur stage of Santa Maria di Castella in his hometown. Professional appearances then took place in revue theaters; from 1944 he was under contract with Gilberto Govis dialect ensemble . Bixio remained artistically and in the gaming community connected to the comedian until he was retired. In 1960 he played in the self-written Chiamate Giorgio 666 and in 1961 with the company of the "Compagnia Gagliardi". Above all, Bixio had a talent for musical comedy, which he demonstrated at Promesse promesse by Garinei and Giovannini alongside Johnny Dorelli and Cathérine Spaak, as well as at the Decamerone alongside Sylva Koscina in the early 1970s . Between 1973 and 1976 he worked at the dialect theater alongside Carlo Dapporto , Anna Caroli and Titti Benvenuto , with whom he carried Govi's legacy to the cities of Italy. The play Anche le figlie di Maria portano i jeans , in which he was cast alongside Erminio Macario , was his last stage.
Bixio rarely played for the film; his few appearances took place as a character actor. He was married twice; after Ida Bartoletti with the dancer Luisa Amorosi.
