Recognition and identity
Have you ever received a message from a family member or friend who is traveling and needs money? In today's world of the internet and social media, identity theft seems like a new phenomenon. Yet, an author wrote a play about this concept as early as 184 BC. Four hundred years later, a famous writer took up this theme again.
Hilarious confusion
The chance of meeting your exact doppelganger seems slim. Yet, playwright Plautus explores this idea in his story *The Menaechmi*. William Shakespeare takes this premise to a higher level in *A Comedy of Errors* by adding an extra set of twins to the plot. This creates extra confusion and funny situations for you as a visitor.
Misunderstandings and consequences
What do you do when your own partner refuses you entry to your home due to mistaken identity? A Comedy of Errors shows the hilarious and sometimes absurd consequences of such misunderstandings. You will experience an evening full of comedic drama, presented by the We Love Shakespeare Ensemble. Attend a performance full of clever dialogue at the Mike's Badhuis Theater in Amsterdam.
