Take Shakespeare’s mistaken-identity farce, The Comedy of Errors. Give it a modern, hip-hop flavor. And you get The Bomb-itty of Errors, a unique, clever, often laugh-out-loud musical adaptation that debuted off-Broadway in 1999. Young performers from Kansas City’s Heart of America Shakespeare Festival and the poetry slam competition Louder Than a Bomb sing, rap, and rhyme through a script-in-hand production that retains much of Shakespeare’s original text – revolving around two pairs of twins who were separated at birth and turn up in the same place 20 years later. Winner of a Jeff Award for excellence in theatre in the Chicago area, among other honors, Bomb-itty is suitable for pre-teen through adult audiences.
