Sean Holmes is no stranger to helming Shakespeare comedies. In recent years, he’s directed A Midsummer Night’s Dream and The Tempest, with both shows highly praised for their joyful, colourful visions. The Comedy of Errors will surely offer a new, revitalised take on one of the Bard’s earliest plays.
The Comedy of Errors is one of 36 plays in the First Folio — the original collection of Shakespeare dramas. 2023 marks the First Folio’s 400th anniversary; an important year in the playwright’s enduring history and legacy. Shakespeare penned over a dozen comedies, including The Merchant of Venice and Much Ado About Nothing.
