| dc.description.abstract | The Comedy of Errors by William Shakespeare is mostly performed as a knockabout farce. Despite undeniable farcical moments the play possesses a strong romantic strain, and the directors challenge is to reconcile these two aspects. For my thesis production of The Comedy of Errors in High Park this summer I will approach this play as a romantic comedy, which I believe will allow for a smoother coexistence of its madcap elements and deeper notes. This paper begins with my research into the history of the play and an examination of the genres of farce, comedy and romance. This paper also contains my directorial premise and production concept, as well as an outline of my rehearsal preparation. | |
