It's National Limerick Day!
Ya know, what we do is similar... A rhythmic pattern, a lot of silly, a titbit raunchy, and playful humor more clever than it has any right to be!
"Commedia Dell’Arte a theatrical art,
Improv and mask and slapstick to start!
Often quite bawdy,
And sometimes is naughty,
A comedy loved with all of our heart!"#CommediaDellArte #Commedia #Improv #Improvisation #Comedy #Mask #Theater #Pennsic #PennsicWar #SCA #SocietyForCreativeAnachronism #MySCA #Midrealm #MiddleKingdom #Cleftlands #Limerick #Poem #Poetry

The theme for the Barony of the Cleftlands {Not So} Regular {Not January} Event earlier this month was the "The Lord of Misrule Reigns"! Our capocomico, Niccolò Bartolazzi, was asked to teach so brought his classes on jesters & fools and commedia dell'arte; we should aim to teach more this year!

To celebrate Global Commedia Day later this Wednesday, February 25, here are three more facts about commedia dell'arte!
➤The theatrical term "slapstick" described comedic stage combat originated from commedia, specifically from the batte carried by or used upon the harlequin fool
➤Though commedia was improvised to a brief outline scenario, most plays had scripted and memorized moments of short scenes, dialogue, or physical comedic bits called lazzi (singular lazzo) that often did not enhance the plot but could be inserted into many plays
➤The most famous actor of commedia in the Italian Renaissance was Isabella Andrieni of i Gelosi who had fan clubs and wrote plays and poetry inspiring many troupes today to use the name for a more clever and self-determined amorosa in contrast to the typically ditzy innamorati#CommediaDellArte #Commedia #Improv #Improvisation #Theater #Pennsic #PennsicWar #SCA #SocietyForCreativeAnachronism #Midrealm #OneWordDay
