Ah, the “enchanted” city of Ephesus, where a visiting merchant from the
wrong city may be ruined financially, accused of adultery by a jealous
wife he didn’t know he had, and committed to an asylum, all in a single
afternoon. Of course, it’s all just a case of mistaken identity, but
should Antipholus (and his trusty servant Dromio) unravel the knot in
which they find themselves entangled, a potential death sentence awaits
if they are discovered to be from their home port of Syracuse.
Naturally, such a
play would be one of the Bard’s finest comedies, but just to ensure that
the joyous confusion thrives he added one more twist to Plautus’ Roman
story of long-lost brothers: a second set of twins!
This comic heart
is brilliantly bracketed around the story of
Ægon, who finds himself in this strange town known to be haunted
by witches and magic in search of his long lost children and wife, and
who is sentenced to die at five o’clock should he not find somebody to
speak for him.
Guest director
Grant Turner has set PAE’s 41st Shakespeare-in-the-Parks production at
the seaside during the strangely rationalized rules of the Victorian
period. Will Antipholus win the love of the sister of his “wife”? Will
Dromio escape his newly found kitchen-wench fiancée? Or will they both
be “Pinched” just as they are about to escape? Join us this summer and
see!
