STORY :

It is one of the most famous mask in the southern Italian tradition . His character dates back to the 17th century; this fact is documented by many portrayals of that period represented him. Pulcinella is Harlequin’s proper mate and he is sometimes his rival , especially in love affairs. In the comedy of art he appears on stage as a clever and loafer servant, who is always hungry and booking for something to eat. In addition of being the servant he has many other jobs like selling miracolous concotions to simpletons. But there is one thing he really cannot do and it’s to shut up. In fact there is a famous italian sentence:” It’s a Pulcinella’s secret”; it means something that everyone knows. He wears on stage a black mask with small eyes  and an aquiline nose , that gave to the actors a particular cracked voice. His name probably comes from “pulcino”so it’s connected to the voice of a chick. Other characteristics are the hunchback , the protuberant stomach and the malice! His appears on stage reminds Zanni’s costume , who is one of the servant in the comedy of art  and consists of a big white blouse and a belt that he fastened under the belly over the fallen trousers
