The Comedy of Errors
2787 B State Street, Carlsbad, 92008
Three performances stand out in New Village Arts staging of the Bard's early comedy. Amanda Sitton, Max Macke, and Dana Case speak clearly and develop lively characters. But compared to them, everyone else either rushes their lines or pushes the comedy past the point where it's funny. Or both. The result, too often, is a heavy-handed approach to a play that begs for lightness of touch. New Village reset the play in a '50s TV studio before a live audience. The choice is intriguing, at first.
