IL MERCATO DEL MONDO e i suoi abitanti (2009)





Team





Written and Curated by Chiara D’Anna and Dr Steve Knapper

Devised and performed by Chiara D’Anna and Dr Steve Knappe.



Blurb





A collaboration with A performance-presentation investigating the relationship between Commedia all’Improvviso, mountebanks and the market-place. A reconstruction of the atmospheres of the 16th century piazza, the heart of the town, a meeting place and a point of exchange. The piazza is the place where the popular and professional theatre developed from a ‘carnivalised culture’ and where the language of the people was shaped.
