Dario Fo
Form and Structure
Dario Fo has used many techniques to produce ‘Accidental Death of an Anarchist’. ...
One form or theatrical technique that is used to convey Fo’s ideas is that of satire. ... Dario Fo satirises the government using witty language and acting through his characters to convey insults and scorn on the government and the events that happened on December 12th 1969. ... A good example of farce within the play could be where the maniac is pretending to be an Inspector on pages 11-14:
“Hello, Inspector Bertozzo’s office, whom do I have the honour of addressing? ... Dario Fo seems to push the exaggeration and farce to a limit within his play. ... At this point within the play, Dario Fo takes it beyond the genre of farce, and it begins to turn into sheer nonsense. ...
At the end of ‘Accidental Death of an Anarchist’ Dario Fo gives you an alternative ending. ... I believe Fo has chosen to do this so that the audience can produce their own thoughts on what really happened. Its almost as if Fo is trying to produce a truthful account on the issue and showing it to the world, getting the audience to make up their own mind on what should happen to the police officers now they have seen an account on what the police officers are truly like.
