Written by William Shakespeare
Adapted by Christina Anderson
Directed by Devin Brain

Friday, February 28, 2025 at 8 p.m.

In the Mediterranean city of Ephesus, two sets of identical twins — both separated from their other halves at birth — unknowingly cross paths, and chaos, mishaps and misunderstandings abound. Experience the joy and hilarity of one of Shakespeare’s earliest plays, a slapstick comedy about mistaken identities, through a new and contemporary lens: a 21st century translation that reinterprets antiquated slang, metaphor and double entendre with updated jokes and clever, modern wordplay. 

Connect with the art and artists in pre-show discussions.
