Anna Rita Marchesini (November 19, 1953 – July 30, 2016) was an Italian actress, voice actress, comedian, impressionist and writer.

Together with fellow actors Tullio Solenghi and Massimo Lopez, she has been a member of the comic group known as Il Trio (The Trio).

Marchesini graduated in Psychology at the Sapienza University of Rome in 1975 and attended, from the following year, the Silvio D'Amico National Academy of Dramatic Arts. She began her career on stage and as a voice actress: in 1982, during a dubbing session, she met Massimo Lopez and, together with Tullio Solenghi, they founded Il Trio, which debuts on Rai Radio 2 with the Hellzapoppin radio show.

Following the great success of Hellzapoppin, the Trio participated in various television programs like Domenica in and the 1986 edition of Fantastico and took part to the Sanremo Music Festival editions of 1986, 1987 and 1989.

In 1990, the Trio reaches the peak of success with the parody of Alessandro Manzoni's The Betrothed, which was broadcast on Rai 1 in 5 episodes. Together with Solenghi and Lopez, Marchesini brought on stage two theatrical shows: Allacciare le cinture di sicurezza (Fasten your seat belts) in 1987 and In principio era il trio (In the Beginning, there was the Trio) in 1990.

The Trio dissolved in 1994, due to the will of all three actors to work as soloists, but reunited for one last time in 2008 to celebrate its 25th anniversary with the TV-program Non esiste più la mezza stagione.

As a soloist, Marchesini took part to several TV-programs, giving impressions of many famous characters, such as Gina Lollobrigida and Rita Levi-Montalcini.
