Synopsis
The essentials which make this one of Shakespeare's most delightful comedies have all been included. The play concerns a family which has been separated. Now, unknown to each other, they are all in the same city; the lovely mother, the identical twin sons who have grown up and the father, who is under arrest. The overtones of comedy, tragedy and romance that enrich this play have amused audiences for hundreds of years. Read an Excerpt Related Titles The Comedy of Errors (Pickett)
