Abstract

Luigi is the founder of the Duse theatrical family, which also includes his granddaughter, Eleonora. He is an important figure in Northern Italy’s popular theatre, especially the Veneto region, in the first half of the 19th century. He was an academic actor, caratterista, and capocomico for almost his entire career. He also owned a theatre. His memory is linked to the mask of Giacometo, created and interpreted by him.
