One of the books I took with me was Barry Grantham's Commedia Plays, which among other things has a long list of lazzi. He doesn't date them for the most part, and they are a mixture of period and modern. I'll try to remember to bring it to rehearsal -- there are a couple in there that I think will fit nicely in The English King of France, and I'm sure we can find more with little effort.

I've got a copy of that one, as well. I wish he'd provided the dates, but I do like the material.

Or we could just make 'em up. <g> But sure, anything we can use -- stealing from other artists is period, right?

At the very least, the lazzi in the books may spur us to create other routines...
