Shakespeare's classic comedy of mistaken identity is aptly named. It involves two sets of identical twins, one the sons of a wealthy merchant, the other their slaves, who are separated in a shipwreck. The older brothers of each pair end up together, as do the younger boys, who take on their older siblings' names to honor them. That only adds to the confusion during their efforts to find each other as adults in an escalating series of madcap mix-ups. The zaniness and slapstick make it a great introduction to the Bard!
Farceur Jared Reed leads the Hedgerow Ensemble in this madcap, slapstick-filled tale of mistaken identity, Shakespeare's first comedy and his shortest play.
