RCCU is beginning its 10th anniversary year teaching Classical Commedia dell'Arte as close to its original form as we believe it was performed in the 1500's to 1600's. Students develop their personal historical Commedia dell'Arte characters and style with their individual qualities.
Areas of concentration
Commedia dell'Arte characters
History of the characters; their movement and gestures, dances,improvisation, lazzi, mask work, mask making, physical skills, prop manipulation, rhythm, scatology, scenario, and more; all integrated.

The Georgian Ball is hosted annually by Bath Minuet Company and has become a highlight of the early dance calendar.
The Guildhall in Bath continues to provide the perfect setting for this event which draws enthusiasts and practitioners of historic dance from across the UK.
A dance workshop is held on the afternoon preceding the ball for the benefit of persons wishing to attend and to assist those with perhaps less dance experience.
