We Love Shakespeare Ensemble – A Comedy of Errors

Recognition and identity

Have you ever received a message from a family member or friend who is traveling and needs money? In today's world of the internet and social media, identity theft seems like a new phenomenon. Yet, an author wrote a play about this concept as early as 184 BC. Four hundred years later, a famous writer took up this theme again.

Hilarious confusion

The chance of meeting your exact doppelganger seems slim. Yet, playwright Plautus explores this idea in his story The Menaechmi. William Shakespeare takes this premise to a higher level in A Comedy of Errors by adding an extra set of twins to the plot. This creates extra confusion and funny situations for you as a visitor.

Misunderstandings and consequences

What do you do when your own partner refuses you entry to your home due to mistaken identity? A Comedy of Errors shows the hilarious and sometimes absurd consequences of such misunderstandings. You will experience an evening full of comedic drama, presented by the We Love Shakespeare Ensemble. Attend a performance full of clever dialogue at the Mike's Badhuis Theater in Amsterdam.
