The Comedy of Errors

Performances July 27-29, 2023
(Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7pm – Sunday at 2pm)

Class Act Productions is excited to announce the return of our CAP Summer Classic, William Shakespeare’s The Comedy of Errors. Performances at CAP are live theatre for families of all ages, with familiar stories condensed into 90-minute performances that appeal to audiences with shorter attention spans.

The return of the CAP Classic revisits a tale as old as Shakespeare, The Comedy of Errors! Thought to be one Shakespeare’s earlier plays, this comedy deals with separated family and mistaken identity.

‘Tis the story of two sets of identical twins accidentally separated at birth. Antipholus of Syracuse and his servant, Dromio of Syracuse, arrive in Ephesus, which turns out to be the home of their twin brothers, Antipholus of Ephesus and his servant, Dromio of Ephesus. When the Syracusans encounter the friends and families of their twins, a series of wild mishaps based on mistaken identities lead to misadventures the likes of which only Shakespeare could have imagined!

This production is performed outdoors at Haines Park Amphitheatre (711 3rd Ave SE) Altoona, IA. In the event of inclement weather, performances will be moved to CAP Theatre (201 1st Ave S) Altoona, IA.

Tickets are $7, available online and at the park.
