The style used in Commedia Dell'Arte is still used in sit-coms today and also in plays such as 'Waiting For Godot'; this play uses the same kind of slap-stick comedy, where the characters are not always 'being funny', however they are funny because they don't realise they are being funny. This is very similar to some of the characters in Commedia

This is because the movements and costumes in commedia are so dramatic and exaggerated, or over-the-top if you're not into big words. Good luck!
