PRODUCER | DIRECTOR | ACTOR - Leonardo Foti was born in Italy, but made Los Angeles his home
five years ago. He is recognized as an international, unconventional and fearless artist who moves
effortlessly between acting, film-making, musical theater, improvisation and writing. Leo directed his first
film last year called “Tipping Point” which was a major success at Cannes Film Festival. Leo is
founder of Seven Waves Entertainment, a new film company Leo created in collaboration with his mentor, Marco
Gomez. Currently, Leo is developing a project called "Extravaganza" which is a behind-the-scenes look at an
LA cabaret club. It's a live show about a reality show within an episodic show! The buzz is that it's
expected to be a break-out hit.
