About The Comedy of Errors

Widely known as one of Shakespeare’s earliest and most chaotic plays, The Comedy of Errors follows twin brothers and their twin servants, separated at birth and unknowingly reunited years later. Add mistaken identities, crossed wires and a city full of confusion, and you’ve got the perfect recipe for mayhem.

As debts go unpaid, doors are slammed in the wrong faces and relationships spiral into absurdity, the story builds into a whirlwind of comic situations that keep audiences laughing from start to finish.

Set within the heart of Cotswold Sculpture Park, the amphitheatre offers a magical backdrop for live performance. Surrounded by nature and sculptures, it’s the perfect place to relax, unwind and enjoy classic theatre in the fresh air.

Book your The Comedy of Errors tickets today and enjoy an evening of laughter, confusion and classic theatre under the open sky.
