The Dell'Arte International School of Physical Theatre is located in Northern California in the town of Blue Lake, California in Humboldt County, California near the major population centers of Eureka and Arcata. Dell'Arte offers a NAST-accredited three-year MFA in Ensemble Based Physical Theatre, a one year Professional Training Program, Summer Workshops, and a Study Abroad program in Bali. == History == Founded in 1971 by Carlo Mazzone-Clementi and Jane Hill, a graduate of Carnegie-Mellon,〔Mazzone-Clementi, Carlo & Hill, Jane. “Commedia and the Actor.” TDR: The Drama Review 18.1 (1974): 59–64.〕 the original productions were in San Francisco. In 1973, Mazzone-Clementi and Hill came to Humboldt County where Hill had a teaching position at College of the Redwoods. Together they put on the ''Grand Comedy Festival at Qual-a-wa-loo'' with Mazzone-Clementi serving as the festival's artistic director for six years. In 1974, the couple purchased the Oddfellows Hall in Blue Lake and the Dell'Arte School opened its doors in 1975. in 1976, Mazzone and actors Joan Schirle and Jon'Paul Cook founded the Dell'Arte Company with the goal of establishing a company/school-school/company along the lines of Jacques Copeau's Vieux Columbier, and the hope to create a resident ensemble, the Dell'Arte Players Company. The first tour was mounted in 1977. Artists engaged for the first production, "The Loon's Rage," included director and co-author Jael Weisman, designer Alain Schons, and actor Michael Fields (in 2013 the Company's Producing Artistic Director), who continued as the nucleus of the new company, with Donald Forrest joining in 1978. Originally called the Dell'Arte School of Mime and Comedy, the School's name was changed to the Dell'Arte International School of Physical Theatre in the late 1980s as a result of the narrowing definition of "mime" and a desire to investigate a broader vision of theatre and the work of the contemporary actor.〔Canavan, Claire, (Created by the Ensemble: Generative Creativity and Collective Creation at the Dell’Arte International School of Physical Theatre ), Theatre Topics, Volume 22, Number 1, March 2012.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dell'Arte International School of Physical Theatre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
