Event/s Description: 

The Comedy of Errors is Shakespeare's comedy of twins and timing, coincidence and confusion. Featuring masks inspired by the Commedia dell’Arte style, the farce centers on two sets of identically named, identical twins—Antipholus and Dromio—separated at an early age by a shipwreck. When both sets of twins come to be in the same city some twenty years later, a chain of mishaps is set in motion as the twins are mistaken for each other, culminating in a climax of comedic chaos.
