https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0o1Jup77oGA This is the video I was thinking about when I wrote this post. It's pretty fun cus it starts out with an introductory lecture on Commedia dell'arte in a very academic style and then the same person who gave the lecture appears in the subsequent performance as Arlecchino.
It's a little like having your professor give a lecture on the history of clowning, walk out and then walk back in wearing a full whiteface-clown outfit. You can't even argue with it cus it's theory and practice, it's good pedagogy, but the change in tone is extremely drastic.
