The Italians in England

4
Seen at the Edinburgh Fringe, Space at Surgeon's Hall
By Derek,edfringe24 - 8th Aug 2024

It took a few minutes to adjust to commedia del arte style, but it quickly grew on me. The script is not strong, but that is only a small part of the show. The costume, masks and exaggerated acting are first rate. The actors blast through with gusto, and it's difficult not to be carried away by the Italian charm.
