The Comedy of Errors
June 29, 2008
, 2008
This is an hilarious story of two sets of identical twins. Aegeon of Syracuse has come to Ephesus to seek his son, who went in search of his missing twin and mother months ago. Too bad that Ephesus has just declared war on Syracuse, and will instantly put to death any Syracusean found within their borders unless a ransom is paid. Meanwhile, the son, Antipholus, and his servant, Dromio (also an identical twin), keep running into strangers who seem to know them. A series of wild mishaps based on the mistaken identities leads to wrongful beatings, a near-incestuous seduction, an arrest, and accusations of infidelity, theft, madness, and demonic possession.
Directed by Joanne Zipay, Artistic Director of the Judith Shakespeare Company in New York City.
