The Comedy of Errors
By William Shakespeare Directed by Brenda Hubbard
This production presented in two acts with one 15 minute intermission.
Comedy of Errors is one of Shakespeare’s earliest plays and while not his most accomplished, is regularly enjoyed and produced. This is probably due to the fact that light hearted comedy has always served a function in the world. Full of charming and entertaining character types that were originally found in ancient Roman comedy and the Commedia Dell’Arte, Comedy of Errors has always been a crowd pleaser. From the crafty servants to the pompous ruler, the long suffering wife and her sister to the braggart soldier, to the romantic lovers to the lusty kitchen maid, to the quack doctor - the play makes great fun of these types of people in an improbable and light hearted way. We have capitalized on the Commedia origins in an attempt to render a physical and boisterous production full of contemporary references while remaining true to our love of Mr. Shakepeare’s words.
