The Comedy of Errors

"I to the world am like a drop of water that in the ocean seeks another drop" (The Comedy of Errors, Act 1, Scene 2). In this madcap, musical comedy, two sets of twins are tragically separated in a shipwreck. Determined to reunite their family, Antipholus and Dromio of Syracuse arrive in the city of Ephesus in search of their respective twin brothers. Upon their arrival, strange happenings occur. Antipholus is greeted by strangers in the street who offer him jewelry and thank him for kindnesses. One such stranger (Adriana) claims to be his wife! Confused and beguiled by Adriana’s sister, Luciana, he and Dromio follow them to their house. Unbeknownst to them, Antipholus and Dromio of Ephesus (the long lost twins) find themselves locked out of their own home! What follows is a whirlwind of mistaken identities, misunderstandings, and mysticism that ultimately resolves in one of Shakespeare’s most touching family reunions.

Hamlet

"To be, or not to be that is the question" (Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 1). One month following the death of his father, Hamlet finds himself witnessing the marriage of his mother to his uncle. Shortly following the ceremony, Hamlet is greeted by his trusted friend, Horatio, who tells him that he and others have witnessed his father’s ghost haunting the castle grounds. Amazed, Hamlet agrees to attend the watch with them in hopes of speaking to it. When the ghost arrives, Hamlet learns that his father was tragically murdered by his uncle, King Hamlet’s own brother. The ghost entreat’s Hamlet to avenge his death, to which he agrees. The play then follows Hamlet as he, along with the kingdom, unravels from the consequences of life, love, and betrayal.
