In small groups, create five tableaus depicting either<br />

the comedy and/or the ‘love’ of each Act. It should be<br />

clear in each tableau which characters are being<br />

represented...<br />

Try focusing on the conventions<br />

from ‘Fold 1’, as this will help to<br />

communicate more clearly to an audience.<br />

Explore the structure of The Comedy of Errors by<br />

storyboarding your tableaus. Try to illustrate the<br />

position and intent of each character represented...<br />
