Shakespeare's The Comedy of Errors

Presented by Nevada Shakespeare Festival

This 75-minute adaptation promises to be a wildly fun retelling of a Shakespearean classic.

Set in the Greek city of Ephesus, The Comedy of Errors tells the story of two sets of identical twins who were accidentally separated at birth. Years later, when one set of twins arrives to town and by chance encounters the community of the other set of twins, it sets into action a series of wild and ridiculous mishaps based on mistaken identities, including: love at first sight, arrest, theft, name-calling, unnecessary beatings, accusations of infidelity and demonic possession. It’s hilarious!

Join Nevada Shakespeare Festival for this adaptation that involves a variety of interactive and inventive theatrical storytelling elements with actors playing multiple parts, many quick changes, puppets, masks, and dance. This is a great starter piece for those new to the Shakespeare experience, young and old, but promises to offer those die-hard Shakespeare fans a fresh look at a classic tale.
