Description
Join the Student Life Team for an afternoon of live theatre entertainment.
The Comedy of Errors receives a lads holiday makeover as the hilarious antics are transported to a luxury Turkish resort. Two sets of identical twins, separated at birth, are reunited with plenty of slapstick humour and witty misunderstanding to keep the proceedings spicy!
The Merry Wives of Windsor will sweep you away to a Cornish seaside town, where Sir John Falstaff has got his eye on the wives of two of the community’s wealthiest and well-to-do gents. Not ones to suffer fools gladly, the streetwise wives orchestrate a series of comical schemes and pranks to humble our hapless knight. Brimming with their original dramatic poetry, the Bard’s playful comedies will lift your spirits this spring.
This event is for current UWE Bristol students only and you must give your student number to be fully registered to attend.
The show starts at 14:00 and the Student Life Team will be leaving from Frenchay Campus bus stop at 13:00, please meet the team at 12:45. Alternatively you can meet the team at the venue at 13:45.
