Comedy Of Errors
£7.99
Two sets of identical twins – Dromio and Antipholus of Syracuse, and their brothers Dromio and Antipholus of Ephesus – having been separated at sea as children, find themselves in the same city for the first time as adults. Soon, their friends mistake the twins for one another and bewilderment abounds, as the wife of one man declares the other to be her husband, pronouncing him mad when he denies the claim.
‘After God, Shakespeare has created most’ Alexandre Dumas
Two sets of identical twins, separated at sea as babies, find themselves in the same city for the first time as adults. Soon, their friends mistake the twins for one another and bewilderment abounds. Joyful, mystical and brilliantly farcical, Shakespeare’s shortest play is an early romantic comedy of confusion and ultimate reunion.
