Comedy of Errors, with Lenny Henry


And just a few days before, I went to the National Theatre on the southbank to see a preview of the Comedy of Errors, with Lenny Henry and others. I thought actually that his lost twin brother's sister-in-law stole the show, she was very funny. Lenny was impressive, as were nearly all the cast. I was a little lost at the beginning, with the shakespeanian english, it took me a while to tune in, and I was tired!! not used to working again yet, you see.
Surprising how a play from how long ago? 425 years ago? Still funny and possible in a contemporary setting, still familiar. Great evening, I must do more of this, its been a while.
