Masq: A Half Mask Commedia
Phoenix Theatre
2605 Hennepin Ave Minneapolis
On February 25th, 1545, a troupe of comic actors officially became the first incorporated theater company, and commedia dell'arte, the Italian comedy form of masked character types, was born. This new form of comedy was so popular that it quickly spread through public squares and royal courts throughout Europe. Now Shadow Horse Theatre -- the only official participant of World Commedia Day in all of Minnesota -- returns to Phoenix Theatre with its new installment of this fun, bawdy genre. Masq: A Half Mask Commedia carries on the classic comedy tradition with an original show that's full of fun.
