Best Comedy & Stand-up This Spring

Comedy of Errors at Toni Rembe Theatre

Comedy of Errors

A firm favorite of Shakespeare's oeuvre, The Comedy of Errors is a colorful confection of chaos full of witty wordplay, frothy farce, and irresistible anarchy. This bubbly comedy will whisk you to a faraway land where the fortunes of two sets of identical twins opens up a world of romance, seductions, brushes with the law and of course, plenty of instances of mistaken identity! Tony-nominee Christina Anderson's update refreshes the jokes while keeping all the timeless charm and is not to be missed!
