Event Details:
"The Boys from Syracuse," based on Shakespeare's "A Comedy of Errors," revolves around the escapades and romantic mix-ups of long-separated identical twins Antipholus of Ephesus and Antipholus of Syracuse, whose servants, the two Dromios, are also long-separated identical twins. Complications arise when the wives of the Ephesians, Adriana and her servant Luce, mistake the two strangers for their husbands. The ironic tale of these separated brothers is a hilarious take on the classic Shakespearean story. This runaway Broadway hit combines Richard Rodgers’ rich melodies and Laurence Hart’s witty lyrics in the classic score, including “Falling in Love with Love,” “Sing for Your Supper,” and “This Can’t be Love.” The Boys from Syracuse is as entertaining, vibrant, and riotous as when it first took Broadway by storm.
