Happy Pride Month! Celebrate the colorful patchwork created by our diverse love and identity!

Our troupe specializes in commedia dell'arte and for centuries commedia holds true that LOVE WINS regardless what supposed "social norms" and "traditions" try to mandate.

Find your way to celebrate and honor understanding, inclusion, and acceptance this month and all throughout the rest of the year!

Choices, choices... What commedia dell'arte shall we bring to Pennsic 53 this July and August?

While our modern plays are more LGBTQA+ positive than traditional scenarios from the 16th Century, historic scripts were more inclusive than one might expect upon a surface glance including characters being in disguise actually getting married! Such is also the plot of our original "The Widow's Wife" where Isabella pretends to be her unwell father Pantalone to ensure his wedding with the (infamous black widow) Vittoria can happen as part of an elaborate scheme to marry her beloved Oratio!

Ten years ago we crafted "Fabritio Ties the Knot" for SCA 50 Year, a bawdy scenario inspired by the main play at that event as well as our original naughty show. It's scandalously appropriate for Pennsic party entertainment (which we encored that same year) and maybe even the Pennsic PA Tent stage (if we can get away with it)! Will 2026 be the year this ribald farce is... revealed?

We love our scheming characters - which is why we go double in "The Witch & the Widow's Web", a farce from our second #Inktober challenge where both Pasquella's plan (to fake Isabella's madness) and Vittoria's plot (to feed her husband to a lion) complicate each other combined with a conman magician (with a fake monster)! Will the tricks be revealed this summer at Pennsic?
