Description: The InPlayers are proud to present In Yonder Green Glen, a modern day commedia dell arte play.
In Yonder Green Glen, we fall in with a troupe of travelling Commedia del Arte actors. They are from today but their high style and low humour are from the sixteenth century. The story line is the same as it as been for over 500 years. Rich old men plot to lure young Ladies into their bed chambers. Poor young men do exactly the same. Actually it seems that love is in the air and has intoxicated all the players.
Harlequin and Pierrot duel for the favours of Columbine, whilest Pantaloon, (dirty old man) desires Isabella and his son, Flavio,(handsome young lover) does also.
They are all here. El Dottore and his fantastic cures. Dashing El Capitano with his sword. Tough and cynical Brighella falling for Isabella's mother, a woman with a past, planning for the future.
Not polite company to journey forth with. As Columbine so charmingly sings:
We are back, we are back
Harlequin et Brighella
We are most rude
And often crude
This is our Novella!
(Ah yes, but as you will see, so much good, old fashioned fun.)
