    Commedia dell'Arte

    "THE HUMAN FORM"
    (20 minutes)
    Created by the PaperVeins Commedia dell'Arte,
    Jerusha Klemperer, Connie Hall, and April Sweeney

    Meet the actors of the PaperVeins Commedia dell'Arte. Their roots are in an Italian street theatre tradition dating back to about 1550, filled with mime, improvised and scripted dialogue (often coarse), and acrobatics. These modern-day Italians will wow you with the latest addition to their repertoire: "The Human Form," an x-rated comedic exploration of the genetics and physiology of Italian servants.
