An important feature of the commedia dell'arte was the zanni, a collection of characters used for comic relief. Tranio could be classified as a zanni. The melodrama and slapstick in the play is also likely due to the influence of the commedia dell'arte, and the protagonists could easily be dressed as clowns and still fit perfectly into the drama. Many productions of The Taming of the Shrew have deliberately made the play as artificial as is possible by using elements found in the commedia dell'arte. Tori Haring Smith writes that, in several stagings, "the actors wore grotesque costumes, beaklike masks, and clown makeup".

Shrew

"Two Kates" (double nude) -- there must be "two Petrucios" also; only then the story works.

One is angry, because the one part can't get it -- love.

Angry Kate is uto protect the loving Kate, who is under constant attacks by the vulgarity of the world. Nobody talks about love, only about marriage!

She has to marry in order for Bianca to marry! What an arrangement!

There is another one -- between the two, or even many!

When and how Petrucio understood it?

Even before he met her? He is an artist, painter. Do we see his paintings?

Tarot Images? (I use it from the Possessed archives -- Maria Lebeydkin).

Not to lose the commercial world for the faceless (their souls), the primitives not cpable of love. They need the love tests, advertising, classifieds and personals, fortune cookies and etc. This is where the comedy is!

I can't drop the "Bianca Story"!

LOVE Compatiblity (type two names)
