What It's About

A stranger arrives in town only to find that everyone knows their name but thinks they’re someone else. In this fairy tale of a farce believed to be one of the Shakespeare’s earliest, everyday miracles, mistaken identity, and double double (oh what trouble!) vision makes for a brisk evening of laughs!

Set against the backdrop of 1960s beat-era San Francisco, The Comedy of Errors will leave both the Bardophile and Shakespeare novice in stitches. Like, hey, daddy-o — wherefore art thou Dromio?

Jobsite is a six-time finalist for the NEA’s Shakespeare in American Communities Award. “No one ‘Rocks the Bard’ as hard, as daring, or as relevant as Jobsite and their players” – BroadwayWorld.

This show is also offered as weekday field trip matinees for high school students Jan. 20, 21, 27, 28, Feb. 3 and 4. Please write to fieldtrips@strazcenter.org or call 813.222.1016 to learn more or make your reservation!

There are dozens of us! DOZENS! Heyyyyyy Uncle Father Oscar. Well excuse me, Judge Reinhold! It’s Sunday, but screw it — juice box time. I’ve always been deeply passionate about nature. Perhaps you remember Neuterfest? I’ll never forget your wedding. Well excuse me, Judge Reinhold! It’s Sunday, but screw it — juice box time. I’ve always been deeply passionate about nature.
