Additional Notes
- In scenes 1.04 & 2.15, a lot of water gets dumped on stage. In most theaters that would not be safe or allowed, so finding another way to represent that would be a good idea.
- Scene 2.03 requires a strong window in the set, and for Isabella to be athletic.
- A bar for a door is a roughly a hardwood 3x5 three or four feet long.
- This play has a lot of people disguised as each other, and so having a good costume department would help.
- The Properties lists military gear for Burattino, but it never appears in the scenes recorded here. There may be something Scala forgot to include in one of the fight scenes.
- In these later plays, there are many scenes with Arlecchino in which no plot point, mood, or direction are given for him.
