  The Comedy of Errors

  Otterbein University

  One of Shakespeare’s most popular farces! First you take a set of twins; then, you add another. Season lightly with a nagging wife and a bumbling bureaucracy, add plenty of mistaken identity and the resulting comedic confusions and you have an engaging mixture that will provide laughter the entire evening. For the entire family.

Although she tries to reach out and make friends, Elizabeth Ann is increasingly isolated from and then taunted by the others, whose small-town prejudices are reinforced by a polio scare, of which Elizabeth Ann is a chilling embodiment.
