There has been an enormous revival of interest in Commedia
dell'arte. And it remians a central part of many drama school
courses. In Commedia dell'arte in the Twentieth Century John Rublin
first examines the orgins of this vital theatrical form and charts
its recent revival through the work of companies like Tag, Theatre
de Complicite and the influential methods of Jacques Lecoq. The
second part of the book provides a unique practical guide for
would-be practitioners: demonstrating how to approach the roles of
Zanni, Arlecchion, Brighella, Pantalone, Dottore, and the Lovers in
terms of movement, mask-work and voice. As well as offering a range
of lazzi or comic business, improvisation exercises, sample
monologues,and dialogues. No other book so clearly outlines the
specific culture of Commedia or provides such a practical guide to
its techniques. This immensely timely and useful handbook will be
an essential purchase for all actors, students, and teachers.
