Saturday, May 19, on Lawrence Green, for one performance only — the LU Troupe presents Arlecchino Tricked or The Love of Three Armadillos, or What the Renaissance is All About. In a spectacle of fun, gaiety, conviviality, and spoof you will see the matrimonial maneuverings of three matchless couples. The acerbic Pantalone—noted Venetian merchant—woos the frank Francechina, despite the interference of her zealous husband Zanni. Isabella, the coy, capricious, and unwed daughter of Pantalone, is pursued by Turin’s most elegant and eligible bachelor, Mario Romangesi. The third couple, Columbina and Arlechinno, although of less lofty lineage, will exchange amorous glances while adroitly arranging terrific tricks. Into this intricate intrigue arrives a philandering physician, the famous Doctor from Bologna. And, as an extra added attraction, a fiery in­ fernal spirit bursts forth to lend a hand to the in­ competent Zanni. THE LAWRENCE UNIVERSITY Commedia dell’Arte Players. Come celebrate with these lovable characters in their conniving and coupling, Saturday at f> pm on Lawrence Green. It must be emphasized that the unabated enthusiasm of all the onlookers will spur the actors to greater and greater efforts. ji{ (glim pse iB ack <3 n t o

Theatre “No clear date marks the end of medieval and the beginning of Renaissance theatre. From country to country the yielding of liturgical drama to secular neoclassical drama occurred at different times; thus, the last vestiges of the cycles can be found in England at the same time that Greek plays were first being revived in Italy. Never­ theless between the 15th and 17th centuries, the character of European drama underwent a major change. On the one hand, the artistic impulses generated by the rich and the widespread medieval theatre divested of religious purpose, flowered in the theatre of England and Spain before passing away. On the other, the Greek and Roman theatre tradition, rediscovered and newly appreciated indicated lines of development that excited the imagination and stimulated fresh artistic effort.” “The popular, communal audience, essentially religious in character, slowly disappeared. Instead appeared two types of audience—the general public, consisting of artisans and burghers, to whom the theatre was offered as an attraction and diversion; and a select aristocracy, which cultivated the theatre for the aristocrats’ own glory, learning, and pleasure. In some countries the two types of audience overlapped, but for the most part theatre for each type developed in its own way.”

The Encyclopedia Americana In Italy, two types of theatre emerged—the commedia erudita and intermezzi, the theatre designed and performed for the artistocracy, and the commedia dell’arte, the theatre of the streets Literature and the fairs. The commedia dell’arte is improvised by William M. Schutte comedy, performed by wandering troups, and often appearing with or without a stage, wherever there was an audience to watch their antics. In the Renaissance Literature was not a decorous affair. invented the newspaper or the periodical, was for a commedia erudita the more formal styles began to It was an explosion It produced some of the most wide range of materials.
