'Morte (Death)' 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.
A useful addition to a plot, Morte (Death) is not always successful in his aims. He may appear to Pantalone, stalk Capitano for the unpaid debt of his soul, or be outwitted by Pulcinella in a game of cards. Morte’s philosophical musings to the audience on the fragility of existence and numerous possibilities for it’s end can be a dark delight, but, as in Punch and Judy, it is always satisfying to see Death cheated even if only temporarily.
