It’s one of the most famous comedies of all time for a reason. Never has mistaken identity been more humorous (or intentional) as two men battle for love and a name, than in this comedy of errors. Ah, the wit—the eloquence—the charm—the confusion? The plot centers around a case of mistaken identity, manufactured by two men both claiming to be, you guessed it, Earnest!
You’ll laugh along as the men try to keep up the charade, while their opposing interests and love lives threaten to undo the whole thing. Who will end up marrying whom? And who exactly is Earnest? Don’t miss the Yorkshire Playhouse’s new rendition of an old favorite that begs and answers the frivolous question: “What’s in a name?”

Ruth, a young girl with big dreams, wishes to join the Round Table with King Arthur and Queen Guinevere. Her performance, while entertaining, is viewed as child’s play by the knights. Frustrated, she rushes off to find her own land to rule, but is met with danger along the way. Will this fiesty young girl be able to fight off evil with the help of her forest friends? Or will her own pride get in the way?
