Commedia Bootcamp

by Janine Sobeck, dramaturg

Before we headed off for the Thanksgiving holiday, Director Stephani Breinholt and myself put our Servant of Two Masters' cast through a “commedia bootcamp” – a day dedicated to learning the history, characters, physicality and movement styles of commedia dell'arte. This bootcamp w.ll serve as the foundation for the style and physical world of our eventual production.

It was a hilarious day.

Here are some of our favorite moments:

This idea is known as the ‘director’s concept,’ which a director presents to the designers at the show’s first production meeting. After that, it is the designers’ job to transform that concept from an abstract idea to a physical manifestation that can be seen onstage.
