Non c'è due senza me: the plot of the comedy

Non c'è due senza me tells of Pino and Susy, once a famous television couple and a couple in life, forced to get back together on stage 10 years after their separation, thanks to the intervention of their shared agent.

10 years later

When the comedy begins, Pino and Susy detest each other. They are consumed by failure, rivalry and resentments never really overcome. The couple that made Italy laugh from the small screen has become a couple of exes who don't speak.

Pino on the couch, Susy looking for a comeback

Pino spends his days on the couch, waiting for new dates that his manager, Gianna, struggles to get him. Susy, instead, tries to relaunch herself with the backing of a politician, and aims to become the lead of a new show.

Gianna's idea

When the lead actor of Susy's new show leaves the project a few days before the debut, Gianna realizes the only possible solution: bring the original couple back on stage. The plan is anything but straightforward, and it goes through lies, emotional blackmail, invented illnesses and rehearsals ever more out of control.

Theater within theater

Pino and Susy reluctantly agree to work together, and the stage becomes the place of a new meeting and clash. The theater within theater, says the presentation, reveals ambitions, fragilities, revenge and desires for redemption: unscrupulous agents, actors in crisis, directors under pressure and the stubborn, human need to be seen again.

The tone

Teatro Vittoria presents it as a comedy of misunderstandings, emotions and plot twists, in which laughter comes from the chaos of rehearsals but also from the possibility that, behind every failure, a possible debut is still hiding.

Who Gianni Quinto is, author and director

Gianni Quinto, born in Andria on December 25, 1982, is a director, screenwriter and actor with a degree from DAMS in Rome, and since 2021 he has been Maurizio Battista's writer, for theater and film.

The beginnings

After high school he moves to Rome and graduates from DAMS with Carlo Freccero. He begins in television as a reporter and logger for La Talpa on Italia 1, in the 2005 edition. Then he handles the television direction of the video lessons of the online university Uninettuno. As an actor he has small roles in Tutti per Bruno and in I Cesaroni.

Theater

He signs many comedies: the musical comedy Campo de' Fiori, national premiere at Teatro Sistina in the 2012/2013 season, and the one-man show Nudo proprietario, both with Rodolfo Laganà. He writes social satire comedies such as Claustrofobia, born after the Salva-Banche decree, Scusate l'attesa, about pregnant working women, Meravigliosa-mente, about a family dealing with the father's Alzheimer's, and Bastarde senza gloria, about the world of work.

With Maurizio Battista

Since 2021 he writes for Maurizio Battista: the shows Tutti contro tutti, Ai miei tempi non era così, Qualcosa non mi quadra, MB Show. He directed the Orsolini commercial starring Battista and, in 2025, his first feature film, Tu Quoque, with Battista and Paolo Triestino. In 2026 his second film, Maledetto Tempo, was released on Prime Video.

Film

In 2021 he directed the short film Mostro, a finalist at Rai Sorrisi Cinema. He is the screenwriter of Bob and Weave by Adelmo Togliani, presented at the Italian Pavilion of the 80th Venice Film Festival. In 2024 he shot the music video Quello non era amore for L'Orchestraccia.

Collaborations

Over the years he has worked with Enzo Salvi, Gianfranco D'Angelo, Rodolfo Laganà, Gegia, Pippo Franco, Dado, Sergio Fiorentini, Alberto Farina, Milena Miconi, Massimo Wertmuller and Paola Tiziana Cruciani: a map of Roman and television comedy of recent decades.

Federica Calderoni, Valentina Olla and Federico Perrotta

Non c'è due senza me is a comedy for three performers: Federica Calderoni, Valentina Olla and Federico Perrotta, for a story that revolves around a couple of exes and their agent.

Three actors, three roles

The plot indicates three main figures, Pino, Susy and the manager Gianna. The theater's page lists the three performers without assigning the roles. If you want to know who plays whom, you can ask at the box office or find out in the hall.

A comedy company

The text is built as a brilliant comedy about the backstage of a show, with rhythm and plot twists: a genre that asks actors for precise comic timing and the ability to move from the punchline to the moment of truth in the same scene.

The production

The show is produced by Attori e Tecnici, the company that runs Teatro Vittoria, in collaboration with Nemo Produzioni. It is therefore a house title, not a passing guest booking.

A curiosity about Non c'è due senza me at Teatro Vittoria, March 16 to 21, 2027

The most interesting curiosity is that Non c'è due senza me is not a new text. In the list of Gianni Quinto's works the comedy already appears in the 2024/2025 season, then directed by Marco Simeoli. For the 2026/2027 season the author takes it up again, also signing the direction: a choice that often happens when a playwright wants to bring the text back to his original idea, after seeing it live in the hands of another director.

The second curiosity is in the title, which plays with the proverb non c'è due senza tre and turns it upside down in an egocentric key: the "me" of the title is that of someone who does not accept being half of a couple. It is a perfect key for a story of stage ex-partners who can't stand each other but can't do without each other, and of an agent who needs both.

The third concerns the author's family of titles. Among Gianni Quinto's first works is a comedy called Non c'è tre senza due, directed by Pietro De Silva at Teatro dell'Orologio in the 2010/2011 season. 15 years later, the same proverb gives its name to another comedy: a sign of an author who loves to play with everyday words.

How to organize your evening in Testaccio

With six performances all at 21:00, Non c'è due senza me lends itself to a simple formula: an early dinner in the neighborhood, theater, a walk on the way out.

Choosing the day

Tuesday and Wednesday are the Meglioprima ticket evenings, to be bought at the box office in the preceding days. From Tuesday to Friday the reduced price also applies for those entitled to it. Saturday and Sunday are the liveliest evenings in the neighborhood, with trattorias full and more movement on the street.

When to arrive

It is best to be in piazza di Santa Maria Liberatrice at least 20 minutes before the start: ticket pickup and entering the hall take a few minutes, and Vittoria has a devoted audience that meets in the foyer before the show. Those who bought with the carta del docente must have already sent the voucher to the box office by 16:30 of the day indicated.

Getting home

The running time of the show is not indicated on the official page: you can ask at the box office at the time of purchase. For the trip home, it is best to check in advance the times of the last run from the Piramide stop or book a taxi.

Attori e Tecnici, the company that produces the show

Attori e Tecnici is the theater cooperative founded in 1977 by Attilio Corsini and Viviana Toniolo, which has run Teatro Vittoria since 1986 and which produces Non c'è due senza me in collaboration with Nemo Produzioni.

A company with a hall

Founded in 1977, the cooperative found its home in Testaccio in 1986, with the transformation of Cinema Vittoria into a drama theater, wanted by Attilio Corsini. The company's signature title is Rumori fuori scena, also a comedy about the backstage of the theater: a repertoire choice that makes Non c'è due senza me particularly consistent with the history of the hall.

A season of comedies

In the 2026/2027 season Vittoria alternates its own productions and guest shows, with a strong presence of brilliant comedy: the Meglioprima formula, reserved for 13 titles of the season, also includes Non c'è due senza me.

Teatro Vittoria, the Testaccio hall

Teatro Vittoria is the drama theater of Testaccio, at piazza di Santa Maria Liberatrice 10. Opened in its present form in December 1986, it has 560 red velvet seats and is run by the cooperative Attori e Tecnici.

The variety building

In the early 1900s Vittoria was a two-story building facing an unpaved square, where variety shows were held. Opposite stood the first public housing of the neighborhood, the result of an international competition and assigned to carters and slaughterhouse workers.

The postwar cinema

After the war the building was torn down and in its place the entrepreneur Amati built an apartment building with a large cinema on the ground floor, with orchestra and balcony: Cinema Vittoria, for years a reference point of the district.

The Attori e Tecnici theater

In May 1986 work began to transform the cinema into a drama theater, to a design by the architect Enrico Nespega, wanted by Attilio Corsini and the cooperative Attori e Tecnici, founded in 1977 by Corsini and Viviana Toniolo. In December the new Vittoria opened. Since 2008 the artistic direction has been Viviana Toniolo's.

Beyond drama

Vittoria organizes literary teas, the festival Salviamo i Talenti with the prize named after Attilio Corsini and an acting school for spectActors from 5 to 105 years old. For some shows it offers an audio description service.

One thing nobody tells you about Non c'è due senza me at Teatro Vittoria, March 16 to 21, 2027

What nobody says is that the two best days to save money are the first two. Thanks to the Meglioprima formula, on Tuesday the 16th and Wednesday, March 17 the theater makes 100 tickets per performance available at €18, single price, for anyone: €9 less than the full price in the orchestra, with no presale fee to add because they are bought only at the box office. They cannot be reserved, so it is best to stop by piazza di Santa Maria Liberatrice a few days before.

The second thing concerns Sunday's time. At Vittoria Sunday is often a matinee day. For Non c'è due senza me, however, the calendar published by the theater lists Sunday, March 21 at 21:00 too. Anyone who takes an afternoon performance for granted risks finding the theater closed.

The third thing is about content. The comedy is an affectionate satire of the show business world, but it does not spare its less noble mechanisms: the career that goes through a politician's backing, the illnesses invented to convince a colleague, the emotional blackmail. Behind the laughs there is the portrait of an environment in which being seen matters more than anything, and the audience that goes to the theater knows how to recognize it.

How to get to Teatro Vittoria

Teatro Vittoria, at piazza di Santa Maria Liberatrice 10, is most easily reached on metro line B, Piramide stop, and about 10 minutes on foot.

Metro B, Piramide stop

From the Piramide stop you cross piazzale Ostiense, take via Marmorata and bend toward the center of Testaccio up to the theater's square. Piramide is also the hub of Roma Ostiense station and the train to the Lido.

Tram 3

Tram 3 runs along via Marmorata and drops you a few steps from the center of the neighborhood. For buses, it is best to use the Atac route planner, which shows the lines based on your starting point.

By car

In the evening parking in Testaccio is difficult, especially on weekends, when the neighborhood fills up for the trattorias. Better to leave the car and use public transport, checking the times of the last run for the trip home.

My advice for visiting Non c'è due senza me at Teatro Vittoria, March 16 to 21, 2027

My advice is to take advantage of the Meglioprima tickets. For a brilliant comedy in a hall of 560 seats, in our opinion, the €18 single-seat ticket on Tuesday or Wednesday is the bargain of the week: just stop by the box office a few days in advance. Those entitled to the reduced price by age or card, Tuesday to Friday, still pay €22 in the orchestra plus presale.

The second piece of advice is about the seat. A comedy of misunderstandings lives on quick lines and reactions, and from the orchestra you catch the actors' expressions better. The difference with the gallery is six euros on the full price. For those on a tight budget the gallery is still a decent choice, with an overall view of the scene.

Third piece of advice: make Testaccio the whole evening. With all the performances at 21:00, the natural solution is dinner before, around 19:00, at one of the neighborhood trattorias, with a reservation required on Friday and Saturday. On the way out, around 23:00, the neighborhood is still alive, and the Piramide metro is a 10-minute stroll away.

Another well-known fact, yet rarely cited

It is well known that Teatro Vittoria is the home of Attori e Tecnici. It is less often mentioned that the Vittoria stage has a much older history than the cooperative: in the first decades of the 1900s, in the variety building, Aldo Fabrizi, Totò and Anna Magnani performed there. The drama theater opened in 1986 is the heir of that popular comic tradition, and a comedy about the backstage of show business like Non c'è due senza me fits well into that vein.

Another well-known and little explored fact concerns the author. Gianni Quinto is known above all as the author of Maurizio Battista's shows. It is less often remembered that he has worked with a long series of Roman and television comedians, from Rodolfo Laganà to Enzo Salvi, from Gianfranco D'Angelo to Pippo Franco, and that his musical comedy Campo de' Fiori debuted at Sistina. A comedy about comedians in crisis, written by someone who knows comedians up close, has an extra gear.

Finally, on the price list: it is well known that Vittoria has popular prices. It is less often mentioned that people with disabilities are entitled to the reduced price also for those who assist them, and that Cortesia tickets, in place of complimentary tickets, cost €5. These are details that describe a neighborhood theater attentive to its audience.

Around Teatro Vittoria: Testaccio

Piazza di Santa Maria Liberatrice is the center of Testaccio, the working-class district between the Tiber, the Aventine and Monte dei Cocci. An overview of the neighborhood is on the page about what to see in Testaccio.

Mattatoio

A few minutes from the theater is ex Mattatoio, today a space for contemporary art: the place that gave the neighborhood its working-class identity, and whose workers lived in the public housing in front of the first Vittoria.

Monte dei Cocci

Monte dei Cocci, the artificial hill made of fragments of ancient amphorae, is the symbol of the neighborhood. Restaurants and trattorias have developed around it.

The Pyramid and the Non-Catholic Cemetery

On the way to the metro you come across the Pyramid of Cestius and, right behind it, the Non-Catholic Cemetery. The Museo diffuso del Rione Testaccio tells the story of the neighborhood in its places.

The right photo to take at Non c'è due senza me at Teatro Vittoria, March 16 to 21, 2027

The right photo is taken in piazza di Santa Maria Liberatrice, with the facade of Teatro Vittoria and the Non c'è due senza me poster on one side and the big church of the square on the other. It is the image that tells Testaccio: the neighborhood theater, the church, the square with trees and benches, the working-class district that became one of the liveliest neighborhoods in Rome.

No photos during the show: in a comedy built on precise comic timing, a flash or a lit screen is a disturbance for the actors and for the audience. The right moment, if the staff allow it, is the end, when Federica Calderoni, Valentina Olla and Federico Perrotta come back to the front of the stage for the applause.

The theme of the show suggests a second photo, as a couple. Pino and Susy are two stage ex-partners forced to find each other again: a photo of the two of you in front of the poster, maybe with someone you have quarreled with and made up with, is the most fitting tribute to the comedy.

Some important events that happened here in history

The history of Teatro Vittoria follows that of Testaccio. In the early 1900s Vittoria is a two-story building on a still unpaved square, in front of a church and the first public housing of the district, the result of an international competition and assigned to carters and slaughterhouse workers. Variety is staged, and on that stage Aldo Fabrizi, Totò and Anna Magnani perform.

After the Second World War the old theater is torn down. The entrepreneur Amati builds in its place an apartment building with Cinema Vittoria on the ground floor, with orchestra and balcony, for years the neighborhood's reference point for entertainment.

In 1977 Attilio Corsini and Viviana Toniolo found the cooperative Attori e Tecnici. In May 1986 work begins to transform the cinema into a drama theater, to a design by the architect Enrico Nespega. In December the new Vittoria opens with 560 red velvet seats. In 2008 the artistic direction passes to Viviana Toniolo. Since then the theater alternates the company's productions, like its signature title Rumori fuori scena, with contemporary comedies like Non c'è due senza me, also produced by Attori e Tecnici.

Who has passed through Non c'è due senza me at Teatro Vittoria, March 16 to 21, 2027

Through the stage of the first Vittoria, the variety one, passed Aldo Fabrizi, Totò and Anna Magnani, before becoming the faces of Italian cinema. Through the new Vittoria, since 1986, have passed the productions of Attori e Tecnici and many guest companies, with the founders Attilio Corsini and Viviana Toniolo.

Through the history of Non c'è due senza me two directors have passed: Marco Simeoli, who signed its staging in the 2024/2025 season, and now Gianni Quinto himself. Simeoli is a recurring name in the author's path: he had already directed his comedies Gli ultimi tre giorni di pace, at Teatro dell'Orologio, and Morta zia la casa è mia, at Teatro de' Servi.

In the same season, among others, Vittoria hosts Rumori fuori scena, the company's signature title, and Addue. Before Non c'è due senza me Streghe da marciapiede is on the bill, after it come 13 13 il musical, Le due regine, Non ti scordar di me and Il cuore inverso. In March Federica Calderoni, Valentina Olla and Federico Perrotta pass through, with Pino, Susy and Gianna, three characters who know the stage's lights and above all its shadows.

Who to go with to see Non c'è due senza me

Non c'è due senza me is a brilliant comedy for an adult audience, about couples, careers and the world of show business.

As a couple

A story of two exes who have to go back to working together is, in our opinion, an ideal show to see as a couple: on the way out there will be laughing to do, and maybe recognizing yourselves in a line or two.

With friends

For a group of friends who love Italian-style comedy, the Testaccio evening formula, dinner and theater, is one of the most successful in the city.

With teenagers

The theater does not indicate age limits. The tone is that of comedy, but some themes, from emotional blackmail to invented illnesses, are adult: in our opinion the show is suitable from adolescence up. Under 18s have a dedicated ticket, €13 in the orchestra plus presale.

Where to eat before or after the show

Testaccio is the neighborhood of traditional Roman cooking, known for its offal dishes, a legacy of the nearby slaughterhouse.

Before 21:00

With all the performances at 21:00, a dinner around 19:00 leaves enough margin to get to the hall without rushing. On Friday and Saturday the neighborhood trattorias fill up: booking is essential.

After the show

On the way out, around 23:00, some kitchens in the neighborhood are still open and the places around Monte dei Cocci stay active until late. For a lunch in the preceding days there is the Nuovo Mercato Testaccio, on opening days.

March in Testaccio

In mid-March the evenings are still cool but already longer: a walk between the theater's square and the Pyramid, before or after dinner, is the best way to experience the neighborhood.

Accessibility at Teatro Vittoria

Teatro Vittoria reserves reduced-price tickets for people with a disability of at least 75 percent, for themselves and for those who assist them. For the conditions of access to the hall, the contact is the box office, at 06 5740170 and 06 5740598.

Audio description

The theater offers an audio description service for some shows: those who need it can ask the box office if it is planned for Non c'è due senza me too.

Before booking

It is best to ask which seats can be reached without stairs, particularly for the gallery, before choosing the section.
