This was a quick informative book about the history of Commedia dell’arte and it illustrates and describes the only lasting lazzi performances, since few were written down or have standed the there of time. It’s more informative than entertaining, though it’s pretty funny in a reference book to have so many graphic acts described rather starkly.
