A Comedy of Technical Errors is lots of fun and very clever. It isn’t a rewrite of The Comedy of Errors but a few characters do get mentioned. There also aren’t that many technical errors and when it does happen it’s part of the story, like when a character can’t get Zoom to work properly.
It starts off with two girls called Jen and Vicky presenting a news show and then the Prince (whose pronouns are ‘she/her’ and why not?) announces they’re going into lockdown. Over the rest of the show, we check on how various characters from Shakespeare are coping with the new normal. There are lots of references to Shakespeare plays and also to lots of the different things we’ve had to get used to in lockdown.
