'Strega (The Witch)' Commedia dell’Arte Mask
Handmade Commedia dell’Arte Masks for Performance, Improv & Actor Training.
Rooted in the vibrant tradition of Italian street theatre, our handcrafted 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.
Literally ‘the witch’, Strega is played in the wider sense as an eccentric old woman. She may possess magical powers, but these likely derive from herbal potions or arcane medical knowledge. Of course these are ridiculous in form, but are more likely to be effective than Dottore’s out and out quackery. She has her own rules and is no respecter of society’s traditions.
