THE COMEDY OF ERRORS
Duration: 45 mins
Cast Size: 4 - 6 actors/ actresses
Language: Modern English/ Cantonese
Adapted from Shakespeare’s The Comedy of Errors, ‘A Comedy That Goes Wrong’ is a Cantonese comedy that explores themes of mistaken identities, as well as the hilarious mishaps that spring from them. The play follows two sets of twins (on one side - Wing and Chi of Guangdong; and on the other - Sing and Sze of Macau) who, initially separated at birth, inadvertently disrupt each others' lives when they find themselves in the same city of Hong Kong, encountering each other's friends and families. Pandemonium ensues as each twin leads the audience through multiple confusing incidences of mistaken identity, leading to the brink of a marriage, more than a few beatings and many instances of laughter.
Performed in Hong Kong's local tongue, HKSTG's A Comedy That Goes Wrong furthers the boundaries of language and literature. This play is also available bilingually, featuring modern English and Cantonese.
