It’s amazing how much can happen in one day. One man is sentenced to death, another finds love. One wife finds her long lost husband, another finds she has two husbands! The Comedy of Errors is the shortest of Shakespeare’s plays and perhaps the most humorous. It revolves around the story of two sets of identical twins that get separated shortly after birth. The fun and frivolity ensues when both sets appear in the same town 30 years later.
Tickets $5 for students/seniors; $10 for adults.
All performances in Miller Auditorium.
