Historical Comical: A Shakespeare Double Bill, by Bill!
Historical Comical: A Shakespeare Double Bill, by Bill!
Directed by Tom Robenolt.
Historical Comical is a bold, devised theatre production from Theatre UAF that dives into the ambition, absurdity, and contradictions of power through two sharply reimagined Shakespeare pieces. Act I offers a dreamlike, haunting take on Henry V, where heroic speeches cloak a ruthless pursuit of conquest, crafted and performed by UAF students and community actors. Act II erupts into The Comedy of Errors, a wild farce of mistaken identities set against the chaos of a tariff war, complete with mask work and mayhem. With live music, vibrant lighting, and imaginative use of UAF’s stock materials, this “Blanket Fort Theatre” brings history into sharp, hilarious focus. Rooted in the spirit of Fairbanks, Historical Comical explores the relevance of Shakespeare’s themes in today’s world — questioning authority, finding joy in chaos, and celebrating community.
