The origin goes back to the sixteenth century, when Italy were common popular theater groups, conducting presentations on the street, as improvised repertory theater. This style became known as Commedia dell'Arte (Comedy of Art), and even today there are theater troupes that style, those famous groups who walked into a trap, and improvised performances by the towns they passed, causing his vehicle to the stage itself, their lives and the art itself.
The Harlequin first appeared with the function to entertain people during breaks in the show, but has gained momentum, reaching part of the stories.
In Brazil, the widespread story is that Pierrot, a passionate and dreamy, is madly in love with Colombina, a simple girl, a lady's maid, and love with Harlequin.
This is sly, mischievous, loves pranks, is invisible, is only seen by the elderly, new ladies of good education and children. Or it may be glimpsed by the ladies, when they steal a kiss, leaving Columbine jealous, making it ready to any Harlequin or girl kissed.
