Comedy of Errors bounces in with sparkly energy and sharp dialogue. Expect dating detours to snowball fast, but the characters keep it grounded with real feelings and great pacing.

Written by William Shakespeare, it’s built for folks who enjoy gentle chaos. Runtime is 1 hour and 29 minutes, so it’s easy to fit into a couple listens. Originally released November 17, 2004.

Our Take

Editorial note: Comedy of Errors leans laugh-out-loud without feeling mean—comic timing keeps the laughs consistent while roommate wars raises the stakes. There’s a clear point of view, which makes the jokes land harder. It’s a strong showcase for William Shakespeare’s style.
