Umberto Verdirosi (Trino Vercellese, 1935) is an Italian painter, poet and actor.
Born in Piedmont, the son of actors, with a Sicilian father and a Venetian mother.

He will replace Gian Maria Volontè in Cavaliere Mario Ruta's company, portraying Aligi in La figlia di Jorio by Gabriele D’Annunzio, Romeo in Shakespeare, Paolo in Francesca da Rimini by Nino Berrini, and Cecco Angiolieri in Beffardo, also by Nino Berrini.

At twenty, he forms his own tent theatre company, which he will lead until 1968, after which he will devote himself no longer to theatre, but only to painting, sculpture, and poetry.[2]
