The Comedy of Errors

Two sets of identical twins, separated at sea as children, find themselves in the same city for the first time as adults. Soon, thei r friends mistake the twins for one another and bewilderment abounds, as the wife of one man declares the other to be her husband, p ronouncing him mad when he denies the claim. Exuberant, complex and brilliantly farcical, this is a hilarious comedy of confusion an d ultimate reunion.
