Mistero buffo. Giullarata popolare
Dario Fo - 1969
Infused with the rhythmic drive of a jazz improvisation, the immediacy of a newspaper headline and the epic scope of a historical novel, Fo and his wife/collaborator Franca Rame have performed Mistero Buffo throughout the world to over 10,000,000 people. One of the major theatrical artists of the 20th century, Italy's Dario Fo was awarded the 1997 Nobel Prize for Literature. Ron Jenkins' translations of Dario Fo have been performed across the country. He is the theatre department chair at Wesleyan University.
