Burjesta Dell'Arte
Starting
Wed 31st July at 7pm
The Casa, Hope Street, L1 9BQ
£2
Burjesta Theatre are beginning on Wednesday 31st July (and for the five
Wednesdays following), a series of workshops where we'll be looking at
Commedia dell'arte, the Italian form of theatre, originating from the
16th century with improvised performances based on sketches or scenarios,
looking comically at the status of society and involving a romantic love
intrigue (Shakespeare was much influenced by it).
We wont be slavishly 'following in its footsteps' but rather to see how
the fundamentals and spirit of Commedia may be used in theatre in the
21st century.
Venue is The Casa, Hope Street, Liverpool, L1 9BQ, 7pm. Wear loose fitting
clothes appropriate to a physical workshop. 2 quid in, non-actors encouraged
to get involved...
See you there!!
