Yet another brilliant might at @ShakespeareNP last night, watching a hilarious adaptation of The Comedy of Errors. I am so proud of Prescot and the whole Shakespeare North project every time I visit. A blessing to be involved. ❤
Agreed. Tremendous production. A riot from start to finish. Bravo.
"Haven't laughed that much for a long time!"
"Can't say enough good things about this production"
"Boss night"
We'll take that! 🤩
We're made up to see people are loving The Comedy of Errors so far! Keep the reviews coming and let us know what you think 🌟
