Step right up to the most outrageous mash-up since your mom got on Facebook! CommedAI is here to whisk you away to a world where the Renaissance improv tradition, commedia dell’arte, collides head-on with the dazzling digital genius of ChatGPT.
Picture this: irreverence and innovation collide as our fearless CommedAI artists hijack the plots concocted by the illustrious Chatwick (yes, that’s our chatbot’s stage name). Armed with nothing but their wits and a flair for the physical, our performers dive headfirst into a wild adventure each night, scrambling to assign roles, snatch props, and deliver a completely original, never-before-seen plot— crafted by the AI and selected by you, the audience!
Humboldt’s finest—Evan Grande, Kathryn Cesarz, Jesse March, Hannah Butson, and comedian extraordinaire Hayden Ezzy—will join forces with a crew of other talented physical comedy performers. Will they rise to the occasion, or will the show devolve into delightful chaos?
The stakes are high, but the laughs are guaranteed as our talented troupe adds a splash of humanity to the cold, hard computations generated by our digital mastermind.
Reservations are highly encouraged, as Dell'Arte's annual Commedia dell'Arte show tends to sell out. To reserve or purchase tickets or for more information, call our box office at 707-668-5663.
Our Professional Training Program ensemble presents a contemporary interpretation of the classic semi-improvised Italian masked comedy. For the last five weeks, they have been investigating the play of recognizable characters, strong appetites, half-masks, and ensemble creation. As our audience, you are the crucial next teacher in this art form. Join us!
