Commedia dell'Arte in Florence Information Session

Commedia dell'Arte students performing at La Pietra in Florence.

Come learn about Commedia dell'Arte in Florence! Join Jim Calder, head of movement in Tisch Grad Acting, and Commedia dell'Arte alumni as they discuss Commedia dell'Arte, the Tisch summer program in Florence.

This six-week program introduces actors to European styles of theatre with American sensibilities. Students are trained in mask work, circus skills, scene improvisation, individual lazzi (bits and specialty acts), and the search for one’s own clown work.

Bring your curiosity for Commedia and learn about living in breathtaking Italy!
