One of Shakespeare’s craziest comedies, The Comedy of Errors tells the tale of two sets of identical twins separated at birth. When Antipholus and Dromio of Syracuse arrive in Ephesus, a city where their long-lost twins live, a chaotic chain of mistaken-identity mishaps ensues. Wrongful arrests, marital mix-ups, and slapstick encounters abound, all culminating in a joyful family reunion for the ages.

Every summer, the Company of Fools present one of Shakespeare's plays in a humorous manner.

Leader: Glen Campbell
