'Tartaglia 1' Commedia dell’Arte Mask
Handmade Commedia dell’Arte Masks for Performance, Improv & Actor Training.
Rooted in the vibrant tradition of Italian street theatre, our Commedia dell’Arte masks are made from high-impact plastic, making them durable, lightweight, and comfortable to wear. Designed to exaggerate character and emotion, these masks help actors deliver bold, physical performances. Each mask represents a classic stock character and is carefully crafted to support expressive movement, fast-paced improvisation, and comic storytelling.
Perfect for both professional actors and drama students, these masks are ideal for stage performances, acting workshops, and improv training sessions.
A stammerer, Tartaglia can play master or servant. Traditionally he is one of the ‘vecchi’ or old characters. He can play a meek underling to Dottore adding confusion to his quackery, a well fed friend to Pantalone desiring his daughter’s hand in marriage, or even a judge passing incomprehensible sentence on a hapless dupe. He may frustrate himself by his hampered speech, or just expect others to wait until he finishes. Stammering, spoonerisms and misattributions are all in his realm.
