SHAKESPEARE IN THE PARK


Last night Maggie and I went to see the current SF "Shakes" production of The Comedy of Errors. As ever, the production was set outside of Shakespeare's time and place - jazzed up with music, creative costumes, some slapstick silliness and in this production, quite a bit of juggling.


The Comedy of Errors is a story of mistaken identity and the 12 member cast made the most of their roles (sometimes double roles.) There were bewigged and made up on crayola colors, some were dressed in jumbles of thrift store finds. It was perfectly silly and perfect for a hot summer night.
