Choices, choices... What commedia dell'arte shall we bring to Pennsic 52 this August?

Inspired by the actual 16th Century play by John Lyly, we've been working on "The Curse of Gallathea" since the early days of our troupe! And given Dottore Gratiano confuses a written work of fantasy for reality, sharing this just before the huge annual CWRU Book Sale is fitting!

Whichever plays we select, catch our shows:
➤ Peace Thursday (July 31) • 7:00pm • Amphitheatre
➤ Middle Saturday (August 2) • 9:00pm • PA Tent
➤ War Thursday (August 7) • 7:00pm • Amphitheatre

Going swimming in the lake is an important part of Double Wars for me #sca #societyforcreativeanachronism

On Tuesday some of us joined i Sebastiani to workshop the historic commedia dell'arte scenario "Favorable Judgment" which is one of our favorite from the Corsiano collection with its interwoven plot confusion and ripe for a future i Verdi Confusi adaptation!

So I'm trying something I've wanted to do for quite some time, and that is to create a 3d printable renaissance and medieval instrument library!

There are hole-drill and position charts taken from renaissance instruments... And its those I'm using to recreate my instruments!

My instrument families I want to address are:

Recorders
shawms
crumhorns
cornetts
serpents
racketts
