When the classroom becomes a stage 🎭
The final exam for DR 106 – Acting for Non-Majors, taught by Prof. Jay Brock, ended with applause as students brought The Curious Case of Food Poisoning to life — a spirited performance inspired by the timeless tradition of the Italian Commedia dell’Arte.
Stepping into iconic roles, the cast embraced the energy, humor, and theatrical spirit of one of Italy’s most celebrated art forms.
The actors behind the masks: melaina_falter (Isabella), (Flavio), (Scaramuccia), Philip Libanato (Truffaldino), (Pulcinella), .shipp21 (Brighella), (Pantalone), and (Colombina).
A final performance that was more than an exam—it was a celebration of creativity, teamwork, and the unforgettable experience of learning through theatre in Italy. Bravo to the entire cast!
