Let's finish up our Essay.

One good structure would be the following:

• Background information on Commedia dell'Arte  (how i t started it and why)
• How Commedia dell'Arte developed (remember to include information about the concept of "grammalot" and how and why it developed)
• Answer the question, "Is comedy an appropriate medium to raise awareness of social issues/ or critique a government?"
• How did you employ these Commedia dell'Arte techniques to create your situation comedy (your character, write your script and participate in a group performance)

*Remember to use the subject-specific terms and vocabulary we learned throughout your essay:)
