The prose, comedy, and cabaret festival of the Canavese region
The Bosconero Civic Theatre Season is the prose, comedy, and cabaret festival that brings the small town of Bosconero, in the heart of the Canavese area of the Metropolitan City of Turin, to life every year. Curated by the Officina dell'Arte cultural association, the 2025-2026 season runs from January through May 30, 2026, with a rich and varied program designed for a wide audience of all ages.
The Officina dell'Arte association was founded in 2009 in Bosconero by a group of volunteers with the goal of managing the municipal Civic Theatre and making it accessible to local citizens and associations. Thanks to this constant commitment, the small theatre has become a landmark for the entire Canavese area, offering a continuous program ranging from brilliant comedy to dialect theatre, and from cabaret to more thought-provoking prose.
The common thread of the season is variety: it ranges from the comedy of Riccardo Forneris with Bluesteel e Rico The Clown to comedies by local troupes, from Piedmontese language theatre by the Gruppo Sud Ovest with Le Busche et CÃ Dl'Era to female-led cabaret performances and reflective pieces like Artemisa and Anime Parallele. A selection designed, as the festival's slogan says, to laugh, reflect, and be moved.
One of the hallmarks of the Bosconero Theatre Season is its accessibility: tickets are affordably priced to ensure everyone can attend and to introduce theatre to those who do not usually go. The shows, mostly scheduled for weekends, turn Saturday nights in Bosconero into a highly anticipated cultural event that attracts spectators from neighboring Canavese towns as well.
The 2026 program of the Bosconero Theatre Season offered a varied lineup, from comedy to Piedmontese language theatre, from brilliant comedies to more intimate pieces. All shows were presented by the Officina dell'Arte of Bosconero at the Civic Theatre, generally starting at 9:00 PM with affordably priced tickets.
Shows start at 9:00 PM. Information and reservations: +39 328 2198601 — +39 346 3664894.
Among the most anticipated moments: the 2026 opening with Bluesteel e Rico The Clown by Riccardo Forneris, the Piedmontese dialect theatre of the Gruppo Sud Ovest with Le Busche et Cà Dl'Era, the Cabaret con le Donne, and the final show Si Può Fare by Laboratorio dell'Arco.
