About this Event

A practical and playful session exploring two cornerstones of Italian theatre: Commedia dell’Arte and Dario Fo’s theatre. Between masks, exaggerated gestures, comic gags, and grammelot, participants will rediscover the great archetypes of Commedia dell’Arte, the transformative power of masks, and traditional improvisations.

Led by Tonino Scalia, French-Italian performer and filmmaker, specialising in physical theatre, mime, and theatre for young generations.Don’t miss out on hands-on activities and lots of laughs!
