commedia
dell'arte

 Most of our masks are based on etchings, paintings, and other research into what the commedia masks looked like.  They are not purely traditional, in that, in an attempt to make them affordable for theatre groups and schools,  we have created them out of Neoprene and paint (traditional masks are made from leather).   In some cases we have created masks for characters that are not traditionally masked.  All masks can be painted in different color schemes, or painted without highlights to look closer to the traditional leather.

greek theatre masks

  Some of these masks are new creations based on the style of the Greeks, however, many of these masks are reproductions of sculptures found in the course of research.  We have included pictures of the original source where possible.  We have created replicas of historical masks with the interest of teaching actors what is was like to perform in masks in the past.  These are not the full helmet-like masks the Greeks would have used (with the exception of the Giant Socrates below), however, hats and hair can be attached by the performer.  They are created in neoprene, with the focus being  what these sculptures would have required from the performer.  If  you have a certain picture of a mask from the past you would like to see brought to life, we would be happy to discuss that with you.
