The Comedy Of Errors at Helen Borgers Theatre

Stage Raw - Somewhat Recommended

"...First-time director Rachel Speth’s interpretation of the play transports the setting from the classical Greek city of Ephesus to 1960s Turkey. This gives a bright, fun spin to production design: quirky 60s sound design from Sarah Carner scores transitions and moments, and costume design (uncredited) offers some groovy personality to the characters, though with an over-reliance on flat black fabrics. Angelica Alvarez’s set design makes potent use of a very small stage by utilizing windows, curtains, steps, and an impressive rolling set wall to approximate bustling marketplaces, winding alleyways, and inner rooms. While Carner’s lighting design remains unvaried throughout, all things do remain illuminated."
