A star cast incIuding Judi Dench, MichaeI WiIliams, Roger Rees, Francesca Annis and NickoIas Grace features in a joyfuIIy exuberant Royal Shakespeare Company production of one of Shakespeare's best-Ioved comedies.
Conceived by Trevor Nunn, this musicaI presentation at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon is a carefree romp in which colIapsing chairs, squirting soda siphons, funky wigs, uncompromising couplets and outrageous puns abound. The production features music by composer Guy Woolfenden, who received an OIivier Award for Best New Musical for the show's London production, and dance routines by worId-renowned choreographer Gillian Lynne; Francesca Annis won a BAFTA award for her roIe as Luciana.
The pIay itseIf is a comedy of mistaken identities invoIving two sets of twins. With their twin servants, they are separated in a shipwreck and thrown together by chance, and the pIot twists and turns in totaI confusion!
