On With The Motley<\/b><\/p>\n

Julie Bracken<\/a> posted a photo:<\/p>\n

\"On<\/a><\/p>\n

The first recorded use of ‘on with the motley’ is in Pagliacci, an opera by Ruggiero Leoncavallo, 1892<\/p>\n

Meaning<\/i>
Put on your costume and apply make up to your face.<\/b><\/p>\n

The people pay, and they want to laugh.
\nAnd if Harlequin invites away Colombina
\nLaugh, Pagliaccio., and everyone will applaud!
\nTurn the spasms and tears into jokes,
\nThe tears and pain into grimaces, Ah!<\/p>\n

For our Italian admirers..<\/i><\/p>\n

Vesti la giubba e la faccia infarina.
\nLa gente paga, e rider vuole qua.
\nE se Arlecchin t’invola Colombina,
\nridi, Pagliaccio, e ognun applaudir\u00e0!
\nTramuta in lazzi lo spasmo ed il pianto
\nin una smorfia il singhiozzo e ‘l dolor, Ah!
~Videolink to Luciano Pavarotti singing the title role<\/a><\/p>\n

And let’s not forget the story: Pagliacci got to know that his wife is cheating on him and he still has to go out on stage and make people laugh .<\/i><\/p>\n
