Comedy of Errors coming to Orcas Center March 1.

Shakespeare’s furiously-paced comedy is staged in a contemporary world where two sets of twins separated at birth collide in the same city without meeting for one crazy day, as multiple mistaken identities lead to confusion on a grand scale.

And for no one more so than Antipholus of Syracuse and his servant Dromio who, in search of their brothers, arrive in a land entirely foreign to their distant home.

Top British comedian, Lenny Henry plays Antipholus of Syracuse in this National Theatre production live from London.

A comic delight…a savvy modern-dress production set in a recession-ravaged city. —Daily Telegraph

Lenny Henry is wonderfully funny. —Independent

Magnificently funny…a modern-urban production full of sharp ideas. —The Times
