The Comedy of Errors
By William Shakespeare
Directed by Matthew R. Wilson

Two sets of identical twins separated at birth, suddenly in the same city, create havoc wherever they go. Director Matthew R. Wilson brings Shakespeare’s poetry and slapstick to life in a physical theatre extravaganza: False accusations, theft, madness, demon possession, wrongful beatings, near-seduction and an arrest—all in one day!
