Story Theater Company Presents The Comedy of Terrible Errors

STC’s Annual Teen Show – Performing April 12-14, 2024

The student director of Shakespeare’s The Comedy of Errors is living a nightmare: one lead actor doesn’t know his lines, another lead actor is having an ill-advised showmance, they’re not allowed to touch the set, and the actors with small roles are about to mutiny for more stage time. It all comes crashing down in this hilarious adaptation of Shakespeare’s 28th-most loved play.

Story Theater Company’s annual teen show, for ages 13-18, is an intensive experience where the participants form a theater company to create a production. With the guidance of an adult director and design mentors, the teens not only act in the show, but are also responsible for all sets, costumes, props, lights, dramaturgy, music, and stage management.

PERFORMANCES

April 12 at 7:00 PM
Apr 13 and 14 at 2:00 PM

TICKETS

Because we do not want ticket cost to be a barrier to enjoying the show, we are leaving it up to each patron to choose a ticket price that is a good fit.
