REVIEW: “The Comedy of Errors” at Shakespeare & Company
Ah, me, Shakespeare. Hearing the name of The Bard, can evoke one of many reactions among folks; “THAT guy?”, “I don’t understand Shakespeare”, “I know Romeo and Juliet”, “They made me read Hamlet in High School” and many others that could be laced with various colorful language fit for one of his more bawdy comedies.
