Lights, Camera, Action! Shakespeare’s high-spirited farce is transported to the Golden Age of film an eccentric group of actors gather on a London soundstage in 1940 to film some comic relief for the troops. Two pairs of long-lost twins end up in the same small town. Mistaken identities and misadventures turn everyone’s lives upside down—and one bewildering day on the streets of Ephesus turns into a hilarious night out at the Theater! In her final production as artistic director, Barbara Gaines reunites with longtime collaborator Ron West of Second City fame, and an ensemble cast of beloved Chicago Shakespeare artists whose combined credits span the Theater’s 37-year history.
