Hilarity and Horror

The Observer links the themes of Comedy of Errors and Richard III, crediting the seemingly disparate works for being "dynamically yoked and forcefully performed." The major speeches of both plays "sing out," with Richard Clothier as a "powerful" Richard (though also falsely credited with Tony Bell's performance as Dr. Pinch). The women of Richard, Jon Trenchard especially, are also marked for their "extraordinary delicacy and precision."
