"Full of raucous energy typical of Commedia dell’arte, this colorful play involves a plot by the roguish clown Scaramouch to have Bacchus, the Greek god himself, star in his latest theatrical piece. Meanwhile, Silenus schemes to interfere with Scaramouch and the would-be lovers, Ione and Sarmion. Performed outdoors resembling Commedia’s 17th century origins."

An actor wears a botswain whistle on a chain around his neck.

The main challenge for props was making, buying, or retouching objects to look appropriate for the time period.

An assortment of 5 ceramic bottles of different sizes. Each has been painted to look stained and aged.
