THE 2015 season of Shakespeare’s Globe on Screen draws to a close with The Comedy of Errors, the perfect light relief to close an epic season of war and tragedy, at Theatr Mwldan on Tuesday, September 29, at 7.15pm.
Take one pair of estranged twin brothers (both called Antipholus), and one pair of estranged twin servants (both called Dromio), keep them in ignorance of each other and throw them into a city with a reputation for sorcery, and you have all the ingredients for theatrical chaos.
Basing his plot on a farce by Plautus, Shakespeare caps the mayhem of his Roman original to build up a hectic tale of violent cross-purposes, furious slapstick and social nightmare.
This sell-out production employed authentic Renaissance costumes and staging and will have cinema audiences roaring with laughter.
Tickets for Shakespeare’s Globe On Screen events are £12.50 (£11.50) from Theatr Mwldan’s box office on 01239 621200, online or via smartphone at www.mwldan.co.uk
