Shakespeare Inspired by Tintin

The Aquila Theatre Company are touring with a production of a Comedy of Errors. The set and costume design were inspired by Tintin.

The unusual setting was inspired by Belgian artist Herge’s cartoon “Tintin.” Tintin is a 1930s Western character who, accompanied by his faithful wire fox terrier, solves mysteries in exotic locations.

“I love that color palette, I love the cartoonishness of it, I love the sophistication of it as well,” Meineck said. “It has a beautiful aesthetic.”
