We're excited to be holding a public presentation of our new production of William Shakespeare’s The Comedy of Errors, created in collaboration with The Saunders Collective. As part of our Without A Net initiative, this event is a crucial step in developing the show for its upcoming premiere.
This joyful, actor-driven take on the classic madcap farce features original music and a whole lot of glorious comic confusion. We invite you to join us at Houghton Hall's Astaire Ballroom from November 13th to 16th to experience the creative process as we shape this new production, which will eventually be presented at Actors Theatre of Louisville.

WHAT IS WITHOUT A NET?
This initiative values process over product, placing attention on the text, the actors, and their relationship with the audience. Our goal is to give ourselves what we need (chiefly, prop and costume elements and a live audience) in order to learn what it is like to do this show; to learn what we’re making by making it. The short rehearsal period challenges the creators to make big, bold choices, while also allowing Fiasco to consider possibilities for a full production. We invite the audience into the process earlier than usual in order to help us learn how the show is landing creatively, and to give theatergoers the opportunity to see a staged production in its most essential form—as actors leap into the act of creation “without a net.”
