## Caption

William Shakespeare’s “The Comedy of Errors” is built upon misunderstandings, mishaps and miscommunications. They punctuate every scene’s twisty nature, demanding precise rigor from adaptations. Christina Anderson’s modern interpretation of the show breathes new life into its aesthetics and staging, yet feels like too much pomp and circumstance for a show that provides so much of both within its bones.

Confusion is key to this show as Antipholus and Dromio search for a long-lost family member, only to get involved with all the wrong people as their circumstances escalate into increasingly slapstick situations of mistaken identity. The Acting Company presents “The Comedy of Errors,” directed by Devin Brain, in repertory with a stellar production of August Wilson’s “Two Trains Running” at American Conservatory Theater, where both productions share one set.

The latter’s 1960s Pittsburgh diner set proves a compelling backdrop for madcap Shakespearean shenanigans, especially with the company adorned in Sarita Fellows’ zany ‘70s nightclub costuming, all of which are pulled from a seemingly endless treasure chest that slides into center stage during the show’s invigorating opening.
