Hey guys, for my drama assessment next week, we are performing Commedia Dell'arte. My friend is playing the part of 'Pantalone' and I am his servant 'Arlecchino'. Its an improvised segment, but we've figured out ways to introduce and conclude the performance. Arlecchino's aim throughout the performance is to get some of Pantalone's money, and at the end, he is going to present the money to the audience while Pantalone is offstage. We've thought of a few ways for Arlecchino to get the money, like tripping Pantalone causing his money bag to spill everywhere, but do you guys have any ideas for other ways Arlecchino can get his master's money? or any ideas regarding anything we can do? we also have to come up with a lazzi routine, where the two characters fight, any ideas what could trigger this fight? thanks heaps :)
