PERFORMING ARTS

COMMEDIA DELL' ARTE

Year 8 performing arts have been working on understanding a 16th Century Italian Theatre style called Commedia dell’arte. This is a very over exaggerated  physical theatre style that uses a mixture of unmasked and masked characters. The class has been  involved in producing their own stock masks… here are four of the character mask they have made… they are currently working on developing scripted Commedia style performances.
