formation Classification: General Commedia dell'Arte for the 21st Century This book discusses the evolution of Commedia dell'Arte in the Asia-Pacific where through the process of reinvention and recreation it has emerged as a variety of hybrids and praxes, all in some ways faithful to the recreated European genre. The authors in this collection chart their own training in the field and document their strategies for engaging with this form of theatre. In doing so, this book examines the current thoughts, ideas, and perceptions of Commedia - a longstanding theatre genre, originating in a European based collision between neo-classical drama and oral tradition. The contributing artists, directors, teachers, scholars, and theatre makers give insight into working styles, performance ideas, craft techniques and ways to engage an audience for whom Commedia is not part of their day-to-day culture. The volume presents case studies by current practitioners, some who have trained under known Commedia 'masters' (Lecoq, Boso, Mazzone-Clementi and Fava for example) and have returned to their country of origin where they have developed their performance and teaching praxis, and others (travelling from Europe to Japan, Thailand, Singapore and China for example) who have discovered access points to share or teach Commedia in places where it was previously not known. This volume will be of great interest to students and scholars in Performing arts, Italian studies, and History as well as practitioners in Commedia dell'Arte--
