RCCU is in its eighth year. We teach Classical Commedia dell'Arte as close to the original as believe was performed. Students develop their personal Commedia dell'Arte characters and style. Master mask maker and Commedia dell'Arte expert Stanley Allan Sherman will lead this Summer Commedia dell'Arte intensive. Special guest teachers including Caroline Copeland with the New York Baroque Dance Company.

These are the areas of concentration: Commedia dell'Arte characters Pantalone, Arlecchino, Brighella, Dottore, Capitano, and Lovers, their movement, gesture, history of the characters, improvisation, juggling, lazzi, mask work, poetry, physical skills, prop manipulation, rhythm, scatology, scenario work and more; all integrated.

Much of our scenario and improvisation work will be taken from our new translation of three of Flaminio Scala scenarios believed to be of the legendary Gelosi Company 1572 to 1604.
