The King Stag
Syracuse University Drama Department
Felix Ivanov, director

Storch Theater, Syracuse Stage
820 E. Genesee St., Syracuse

One of the best-known plays of the Commedia del'Arte form, Carlo Gozzi's magical tale, in its English version by Albert Bermel, brings to life King Deramo, his faithful wife Angela, his treacherous prime minister Tartaglia, several hare-brained members of his court, a magician, a parrot, magical stags, and a giant bear. A fairy tale for all ages, The King Stag captures the sheer fun and bracing physicality of the Italian comic tradition.
