Well, obviously each role is older than the last. But some of them are more dependent than others and the first and last are the most dependent of all: the infant mewling and puking in his nurse's arms, and the senile old man in second childishness and mere oblivion.

Each age has its own feeling, however, and when being delivered by the actor, each age should be delivered in a slightly different voice: the lover. "sighing like furnace" in a light, mournful tone, the soldier "full of strange oaths" in a rough and vigorous style, the justice "full of wise saws" in a pompous, heavy, deep tone, the old man in a voice which "pipes and whistles".

Why did commedia wear masks?

Commedia dell'Arte performers wore masks to exaggerate their characters' traits and to convey emotions more vividly. Masks allowed actors to embody specific stock characters, each with distinctive personalities and social roles, facilitating quick recognition by the audience. Additionally, the use of masks added a layer of anonymity, enabling performers to adopt a range of personas without concern for their personal identity. This theatrical tradition also emphasized physical comedy and exaggerated expressions, enhancing the overall performance.
