*The Comedy of Errors *is one of William Shakespeare's early plays. It is
his shortest and one of his most farcical comedies, with a major
part of the humor coming from slapstick and mistaken identity, in addition
to puns and word play. It has been adapted for opera, stage, screen and
musical theatre.

*The Comedy of Errors* tells the story of two sets of identical twins that
were accidentally separated at birth. Antipholus of Syracuse and his
servant, Dromio of Syracuse, arrive in Ephesus which turns out to be the
home of their twin brothers, Antipholus of Ephesus and his servant,
Dromio of Ephesus. When the Syracusans encounter the friends and
families of their twins, a series of wild mishaps based on mistaken
identities lead to wrongful beatings, a near-seduction, the
arrest of Antipholus of Ephesus, and false accusations of infidelity,
theft, madness, and demonic possession.

CHARACTER

*Antipholus of Ephesus*, merchant and unknown twin to the visiting
Antipholus of Syracuse.  Because of a case of mistaken identity, Antipholus
of Ephesus soon becomes the hapless target of  a wrathful wife, a
vindictive courtesan, and an overeager exorcist, culminating with his
pursuit by an officer of the law. Some physical activity, including
slapstick, will be necessary for this role.

Any questions please contact director John A. Nickles at
john.a.nickles at gmail.com.
