Commedia Dell'arte
Are you aching to be Arlecchino, panting to be Pantalone, craving to be Colombina? Express your inner commedia dell'arte characters and learn traditional performance techniques in Chronos Theatre Group's workshop in commedia dell'arte taught by Ivan Rupnik.
This ancient form of traveling theater is still hilarious today, and commedia skills are a useful addition to a modern actor's toolkit. Classes include group work as well as individualized help with creating characters and performing lazzi. Soft shoes, such as ballet slippers or jazz shoes, are advised, as well as comfortable, stretchy clothes to move in.
The workshop, suitable for students of all ages and levels of experience, consists of four sessions: Saturday and Sunday afternoons on December 27 and 28 and January 3 and 4. Info: [email protected] or 619-356-1492.
