| Students in drama classes at York High School recently completed a Commedia Dell Arte Unit. Commedia Dell Arte is an Italian form of theatre from the 15th century that focuses on comedy sketches and improvisation. The term "slapstick comedy" comes from this historical form of theatre. Each scene has traditional stock characters that wear masks. The students spent the beginning of the unit learning the history of the character movement. They engaged in a master class from the Italy's Commedia master Fava via instructional DVD.
