Young Shakespeare, Austin Shakespeare’s teen company, returns for its 15th year with Shakespeare’s The Comedy of Errors performed in a circus style at The Curtain, a replica of Shakespeare’s Globe Theater (one of only 12 Elizabethan replica theaters in the country) on the shores of Lake Austin. The company will audition young actors ages 13-19 who receive intensive instruction in Elizabethan acting, movement and stage craft, culminating in 7 public performances.
Filled with slapstick, mistaken identities and Shakespeare’s renowned puns and word play, Comedy of Errors is one of the playwright’s earliest plays. “Comedy of Errors is an evening of delightful, comedy and mistaken identities and crazy characters,” Co-Director Ann Ciccolella said. “Tumbling and dance will also enhance the production, which is set under the big top.”
