A couple of more Y0u Tube Videos:  The first, the famous "Hunger of Zanni" lazzo here performed by Dario Fo.  Zanni, a starving servant, a prefiguration of the commedia "Arlecchino" is starving and debates eating (or eats) himself, and the world around him.  He gets so caught up in his fantasy that he imagines making a huge dinner, only realizing after he has eaten it that it has all been a dream.  He then eats a fly.
