Overall, this Comedy of Errors has missed the mark. It has some interesting ideas, but none are fully realised.

The Comedy Of Errors review
We haven't laughed this much at something the RSC has put on in a while. This play is exactly what we need to cope as the days become darker and winter sets in.
