Dell'Arte
Hovey Burgess, Julie Goell and Stanley Allan Sherman
are combining their teaching, performing, acting, directing, writing and
mask making talents to give students a firm grounding in Classical Commedia
Dell'Arte. Teaching collaboratively, these three master teachers offer an
integrated Commedia program of masks, music, physical comedy, dance,
acrobatics, rhythm, stage fighting, slapstick, history, juggling, lazzi,
improvisation, scenarii (scenarios) and more. Students learn the physical
style of Commedia Dell'Arte as it was "then" and how it may be used "now" as
a creative tool for actors, performers and directors. Enlightening, guiding
and instructing students in Commedia Dell'Arte is our goal.

Comments from students after taking the weeklong session at the "Celebration
Theatre Barn":
"It is not just about Commedia but developing skills for acting and
connecting honestly with moment-to-moment impulses in improvising and in
performing. I am going to recommend you to all of my students and colleages."
-Professor Judith Chaffee from Boston University (classical theater program)
after taking the summer session.
"Thanks ever so much for your Commedia Dell'Arte workshop at the Celebration
Barn Theater. Although I've taken a number of Commedia Dell'Arte and
physical theater workshops previously, your Roving Classical Commedia
University has all of my past experiences beat by far. I can assure you, as
a result of my participation in your workshop, what I do personally with
Commedia and what our Commedia Dell'Arte troupe does from now on will be
completely transformed..."
-Glenn Russell Pasta Shock, a Philadelphia based Commedia Dell'Arte Troupe
"...I have adopted the "Doctore" character and although this mask I made since
I got home is a little more on the cartoon side than the Commedia side (its'
blue!) It is still very much a "Doctore character and very French! I've used
him to introduce a number of keynote talks I've been asked to do at health
conferences. He (and the character is definitely a he - wearing a doctor's
coat) He is a lot of fun and warms the audience up to "what is next" Thanks
for your patience with us."
