Regardless if you're an actual cow or Oratio in a "clever" disguise (from our sports themed commedia dell'arte "A Comedic Farce of a Fraudulent Cow in Calcio Fiorentino" at the 2024 Midrealm Spring Coronation), Happy World Farm Animals Day! We should all strive for the better treatment of animals, especially those used in agriculture.

This week, i Sebastiani and friends workshopped "Enchantments of Love", a "street" commedia dell'arte scenarios from the Corsiniana collection with many magical elements! We'll likely write our own adaptation! 🤣

Tonight i Verdi Confusi plans to Zoom rehearse our own fantastical "A Mockery of Mimicry" as we prepare for both Confluence in July and Pennsic in August!

Last week, i Sebastiani and friends continued to workshop #commedia dell'arte scenarios from the Corsiniana collection with "The Twins", inspired by Plautus's classic "Menaechmi"! Long lost twin siblings, confusion, rapid swapping of characters on stage. We theatrically live for this kind of stuff! Guess we better go write our own adaptation? 🤣

Tonight's workshop looks at another magical commedia!
