Staten Island Shakespearean Theatre Company Presents: The Comedy of Errors By William Shakespeare Like a cartoon come to life, the many cases of mistaken identity when two sets of twins with the same name are separated at birth and unbeknownst to anyone, end up in the same town, are abundant! Our production, inspired by the campy comedy of drag and clowning, will explore the assumptions made about a person based on their appearance, and how not directly addressing an issue can make situations much more complicated – and hilarious. September 12, 13, 19, 20 (Rain dates: September 14 and 21) 7:30pm Outside the Music Hall Annex Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden 1000 Richmond Terrace Staten Island, NY 10301 FREE ADMISSION Seating is limited and a ticket is required.
