Drum and Colours: The Comedy of Errors @ Seattle Shakespeare Company (Seattle Center)

What are the chances there’s a guy walking around town with your face? What are the chances there’s another guy walking around town with your servant’s face? Antipholus and Dromio encounter some trouble when their doppelgangers seem to be on the loose in Ephesus, not realizing that their identical twins with identical names were separated from them in a shipwreck decades earlier. This sets up a chain of dominos: launching several existential crises, arrests, assaults, and an exorcism until the truth of the doubling is finally revealed. The descent into hysteria is reversed with a family reunion and a happily ever after. Written by William Shakespeare. Directed by Jimmy Shields.

Presented by Seattle Shakespeare’s Drum and Colours Company, which aims to meet the community’s needs with an all-BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) company with 360-degree representation, including actors, directors, and production team. Drum and Colours explores BIPOC company members’ personal connections to the classics and sheds new light on familiar works.
