As part of the celebration of International Commedia dell’ Arte Day, sponsored by UNESCO, the commedia troupe i Firenzi presents a free comedy improv show in the style of Italian Commedia dell’ Arte.
The performance takes place Sunday, February 23, 2025, from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m., at the Academy Pavillion at Downtown Cary Park, 327 S Academy Street, Cary, North Carolina.
The troupe presents an historically informed comedy, about Pantalone the Merchant, the braggart Capitano Spavento, and our favorite clumsy servant Arlecchino! They use a hybrid of improvisation and historically accurate stock characters to tell the story. The audience is encouraged to talk back to the actors and engage like the English panto plays common at Christmastime.
They e also teach classes, so come for a laugh, and stick around to learn how to bring commedia to life!
Free, family-friendly, and funny!
Double-Check Before You Head Out!
