Closing: October 27, 2024

The Comedy of Errors - West End History , Info & More

Shakespeare's Globe
21 New Globe Walk City of London, Greater London SE1 9DT London

Back by popular demand, get ready to experience ‘the Globe at its most joyous’ (WhatsOnStage) as our ★★★★ production of The Comedy of Errors makes a triumphant return this summer.

Be transported back to Elizabethan London as the Globe transforms into a bustling dock – complete with ship masts and piers – where Shakespeare’s wild comedy about rival cities, long-lost siblings and mistaken identities comes to ‘brisk, boisterous and rib-tickling’ life (The Times) with ‘boundless energy and slapstick silliness’ ★★★★ (Broadway World).

Globe Associate Artistic Director Sean Holmes (The Winter’s Tale, 2023) and 2023 Globe Resident Associate Director Naeem Hayat (King Lear, 2022) return to co-direct.

‘One of these men is Genius to the other;

And so, of these, which is the natural man

And which the spirit? who deciphers them?’

– Act V, scene 1
