A vibrant adaption of Carlo Goldonis classic Venetian comedy Le Baruffe Chiozzotte, reimagined within the bustling Italian-American community of New York. The play celebrates the lives, loves and quarrels of Italian immigrants and their neighbours from other cultures.
Told through the spiritied language of Comedia dell‘Arte, the production honnours the improvisational, physical and ensemble based traditions of the form while reinventing them in a multicoloured contemporary key.
The performance relied heavily on ensemble collaboration and actor-driven invention, asking each performer to channel their comic instincts, physical precision and improvisational courage. It provided the perfect experience on learning how to adapt to devised works , designing on the fly as a peice evolved through the rehersal process.
