Commedia Dell'Arte is a form of Italian comedy which originated in Italy around the mid to late 14th Century. In commedia dell'arte, there is no script but a scenario is given as an outline of a story. This is called "improvisational" Performers are either "straightforward or exaggerated" and would invent and improvise words and actions for a play.
Commedia dell'Arte performances followed conventional plot lines based on themes of adultery, old age, jealousy, and love. Lari_xox_173
