Description

The Ensemble at New Village Arts takes on Shakespeare’s broadest farce in THE COMEDY OF ERRORS. Directed by Justin Lang, THE COMEDY OF ERRORS allows the Ensemble to show off its comedic skills. Set in the 1950s as if it were being filmed in front of a “live studio audience”, NVA’s THE COMEDY OF ERRORS is a tale full of mistaken identity, slapstick humor and romance. Featuring NVA favorites Amanda Sitton, Manny Fernandes, Kristianne Kurner and John DeCarlo, this show promises to be a big departure from NVA’s highly lauded OF MICE AND MEN and an easy laugh before the intense dark comedy of BURIED CHILD. THE COMEDY OF ERRORS will be playing at New Village Arts Theatre (2787 State Street, Carlsbad Village) from February 8 – March 4, 2012. The official opening night is February 11 at 8 PM. Tickets can be purchased at www.NewVillageArts.org or by calling 760-433-3245.

THE COMEDY OF ERRORS is Shakespeare’s uproarious farce about mistaken identity, love and mayhem. Imagine entering a strange land where all of the inhabitants are alien to you, but you are well-known, even notorious, to them all. So is the story of Antipholus and his servant Dromio, when they visit a small town and accidentally step into the lives of their long-lost identical twins.
