Special music score created for Alsager production of A Comedy of Errors

Jul 1 2009 by Will Harris, Crewe Chronicle

A SPECIAL Middle Eastern score has been created for Alsager Community Theatre’s open air summer production of Shakespeare’s A Comedy Of Errors at Little Moreton Hall.

Local composer Richard Tadman is the force behind the music, which will be performed live on mandolin, recorder, hand-drum and accordion.

Director Maree Thorpe said: “Light though it is, The Comedy of Errors is more than its improbable plot. Interlaced with the comedy is a disquieting sense of dislocation and loss of a sense of self.”

The show is performed outdoors on July 9-11 and July 16-18 at 7.45pm. Tickets are £12, phone the box office on 01260 276165.
