Commedia dell' arte began in the carnival atmosphere of sixteenth-century marketplaces in Europe and despite being non-elitist, was soon in high demand amongst the aristocracy. Rude, funny and satirical, the comedy was performed by professional actors who could sing, dance, mime, clown, juggle and tumble their way through the improvised shows. From vaudeville to pantomime and silent movies, from the Marx Brothers to Monty Python, all must tip their hat to the commedia dell’arte players.
Included in this exclusive e-book So You Think You Know Commedia? are three complete drama sessions suitable for Key Stages 3, 4 and 5 as well as a fuller introduction to the theatre tradition and style. This is the complete 2,000 word article by David Farmer as published in Teaching Drama magazine (Read an extract from the article).
