In this dizzying comedy of mistaken identity, Antipholus and his servant Dromio journey from their hometown of Syracuse in search of their long-lost twin brothers. Their arrival in the foreign city of Ephesus sets off a farcical chain of mishaps as the twins are mistaken for each other, resulting in a climax of comedic chaos only Shakespeare could devise. Free Shakespeare in the Park 2009 is a colorful carnival, a circus-inspired mixture of juggling, slapstick, and visual and verbal puns. Enjoy the madness and romance of this Comedy of Errors. Resident Director Kenneth Kelleher returns to the park for his seventh hit season of crowd pleasing Shakespeare! His arresting visual style and use of music and dance brought rave reviews for our 2008 production of Pericles, the 2007 production of A Midsummer Night's Dream and our 2006 production of The Tempest. Fans of Free Shakespeare in the Park will be delighted to see a number of familiar faces in this 12 actor cast, as well as some talented newcomers to the Festival's park stage. Bring your family, friends, a blanket and a picnic to enjoy FREE professional theater in beautiful Memorial Park! |
