The first in Chronos Theatre Group's World Theater Workshop series will be a seminar in commedia dell'arte, taught by Ivan Rupnik
The two-hour workshop will include the history and background of commedia, as well as individual and group work with masks and lazzi (comic scenarios). Ivan will demonstrate the physical and vocal characterizations of the traditional stock characters such as Pantalone, Arlecchino, and Colombina and will help actors as they attempt to create the characters with traditional masks and movement.
Students are advised to dress to move and to bring soft-soled shoes, such as jazz or ballet slippers. Info: [email protected].
