The Comedy of Errors, one of Will Shakespeare’s early plays, is slapstick farce and mistaken identity at its finest.

BATS’ Peter Bradbury, said the weather this week has helped draw a good crowd, adding: “The performances to date have been going extremely well and the feedback from the audience has been very positive.”

Performances continue tonight and tomorrow (July 25 & 26) at 7.30pm. Refreshments are available or take a picnic.

Tickets on the gate or at Destinations, Sackville Road or at: www.the-bats.co.uk
