COMMEDIA DELL’ARTE COACH

Born and raised in Italy, Alice approached the work of commedia dell’arte with Eugenio Allegri in 2010. She was selected for the international project: Comici Scavalcamontagne and following her initial training she toured in North Italy (for the prestigious festival Teatro a Corte) and France (GAP) with the show Il Falso Magnifico directed by Eugenio Allegri playing Colombina. She then started assisting Italian actor and educator Oscar Ferrari in his commedia dell’arte workshop and continued her Mime training with Marcel Marceu’s first assistant Elena Serra.

Alice moved to New York in 2024 to attend The Stella Adler Studio of Acting professional conservatory. During these years she kept expanding her knowledge of Commedia dell’Arte and mask work with Elena Zucker (Neutral Mask), Carine Montbertrand (Commedia dell’Arte) and Mime (Bill Bowers).

After graduation she immediately started working with Kairos Italy Theatre, where she performed at Casa Italiana Zerilli Marimò in On the Italian Stage curated by Laura Caparrotti where she played Arlecchino. She also played Colombina in Story of All Stories produced by Kairos Italy Theater and performed all around New York in both carnival events and public schools.

Over the past years Alice taught commedia dell’arte workshops for both adults and children in several public and private schools, theatre companies, festivals and more in New York and Chicago. She is currently the head of the educational program of Kairos Italy Theater.

Alice was praised by broadwayworld.com for her portrayal of both sets of Dromios in a comedy of Errors:
“Alice Lussiana Parente uses her strong background in Commedia Dell’arte to create moments of comedic gold — watching her is such a delight”
