Fregoli dietro le quinte 1898

Directed by Leopoldo Fregoli

Backstage, between two curtained doors on either side, Fregoli is seated in the center, dressed in a tight-fitting suit and assisted by two helpers. He rises abruptly, exits, re-enters, disguising himself, thanks in part to the arrival of a third helper, as a character with a wig, big nose and light coat; he undresses again and disguises himself as a ballerina; he exits, re-enters and disguises himself as a gentleman with a black cape and bowler hat, but without the jacket underneath, with his arms exposed.
