Alarm! Masks and Menace as Harlequin meets Haneef
Blazing from behind their 500 year old masks, the characters of the Commedia dell’Arte sink their teeth into the war on terror.
Does Seamus’ humble vegetable patch make him a terrorist? What is the miser Pantalone’s plan, and can it be thwarted? Where will Flaminia be led by her explosive passion for a mystery lover? Alarm! hurls you into the hilarious world of Commedia dell'Arte. Stage combat, improvisation, original music, shadowy politics and burlesque in a tangled tale of ASIO agents, terror suspects, phone sex and gardening.
