In this play, we had a scene in which the Carolingian Pike Company was brought in to carry away Father Grifarosto. This was done by Tomas de Laurant.

In this play, somewhat chubby Harold Feld played Arlecchino, in a very high energy fashion. Everything he said or did was affected by apocalyptic visions and fears. God would certainly be smiting us all very soon. This may have been the greatest Arlecchino performance I've ever seen. Sadly Harold moved to Washington DC and became a very successful and influential lawyer.

I'm pretty sure the spelling is "Grifarosto" but I could be wrong on this, because I originally stole the name from a work of Pulci's that I've been unable to find a translation of. (Actually, I stole it from somebody talking about Pulci's work, of course.) It's Italian for grab-a-roast, if that helps, but I'd really like to find the work itself.
