Add Review/Comment

The merry troupe—Columbine, Arlequin, Punchin and Rosetta—tackle, tumble, trick and trip their way through the tale of Robin Hood with fantastic abandon. Get ready for action-packed clowning with puppets, stilts, singing, patter verse and mock combat in this unforgettable adaptation by Lane Riosely. Commedia dell’arte, Italian for “comedy of the professional artists,” was a popular form of improvisational theatre that began in Italy in the fifteenth century and continued in its appeal for centuries. At that time, all performances were unscripted and held outdoors, with only simple props and no scenery. The influence of commedia dell’arte is evident in much of our contemporary comedy, most notably in the great commedia artists of the twentieth century, the Marx Brothers. "The Commedia Robin Hood" will be directed by Ethan Roberts and is open to students rising to 3rd grade through those rising to 8th grade.
