Houston Shakespeare Festival presents "Comedy of Errors"
Miller Outdoor Theatre, 6000 Hermann Park Dr, Houston, TX, US“Let’s go hand in hand, not one before another.”
About the performance: "Shakespeare’s riotous farce of mistaken identity, 'The Comedy of Errors', brings double trouble to the bustling port city of Ephesus when two sets of twins—separated at birth—unexpectedly cross paths, unleashing a whirlwind of mayhem and mirth.
"In this fast-paced comedy bursting with physical humor, outrageous confusion, and joyful surprise, husbands are mistaken for strangers, servants are denied their own names, and no one can tell friend from foe. As misunderstandings multiply and tempers flare, the laughter never lets up.
"Filled with rapid-fire wit and escalating absurdity, 'The Comedy of Errors' showcases Shakespeare at his most playful. Don’t miss this crowd-pleasing classic, directed by HSF Artistic Director Jack Young."
