“The Comedy of Errors” has been a massive hit for the Aquila Theatre Company since its first incarnation in New York in 2000. Since then, this high-powered, vibrant production has delighted audiences around the globe. “The Comedy of Errors” is a must-see for newcomers to Shakespeare and Bard enthusiasts alike.

“The Comedy of Errors” is one of Shakespeare’s most vibrant and sparkling comedies. The shrewd and inventive plot relates an intricate and energetic story of two pairs of identical twins in the same household, separated by a devastating shipwreck. But all is not what it seems.  Shakespeare’s remarkable staging propels a glorious, farcical romp set in the sumptuous surroundings of the ancient city of Ephesus. Brilliant comedy abounds in this witty tale of mistaken identity, assumed personas, hilarious machinations and whimsical family ties.
