Festival Players. A Comedy of Errors. Outdoor theatre
Tiverton Community Arts Theatre, Devon, EX16 6SQ
Sunday 28th June 2026
Outdoor theatre returns by the Festival Players returns to Tiverton in 2026.
One of Shakespeare’s earliest and wildest farcical plays, The Comedy of Errors tells the story of twin sons and their twin servants, separated in a shipwreck. The play explores themes of identity, mistaken identity, and family as we find out what happens when the twins unknowingly find themselves in the same town on the same day. The ultimate recipe for chaos!
Confusion and mishap ensue as no one can tell the twins apart, husbands appear to be in love with the wrong person, debts refused to be paid and servants lock masters out of their own homes. It is a race against time to solve this biological puzzle!
The Festival Players bring live original music, comedic chaos, fast-paced story telling, traditional costume and more to Shakespeare’s most farcical play, in their 2026, and 41st, open-air summer theatre tour.
Bring your chairs + a picnic and enjoy some amazing theatre. Our bar will be open throughout the evening for drinks.
