The Acting Company at Wortham Center

The Acting Company presents two plays, The Comedy of Errors, written by William Shakespeare, adapted by Christina Anderson and directed by Devin Brain, and Two Trains Running, written by August Wilson and directed by Lili-Anne Brown.  

The Comedy of Errors takes place in the Mediterranean city of Ephesus where identical twins, both separated from their other halves at birth, unknowingly cross paths. Experience the joy and hilarity of this slapstick comedy about mistaken identities, through a new and contemporary lens.
