The Comedy of Errors

von William Shakespeare

Nature or Nurture-- The Comedy of Errors tells the story of two sets of twins accidently separated and mixed at birth. When the four meet, a series of wild mishaps are set into motion by mistaken identities. This is a fast-paced farcical romp full of slapstick and wordplay: one of the bard's most fun plays. He that commends me to mine own content Commends me to the thing I cannot get. I to the world am like a drop of water That in the ocean seeks another drop, Who, falling there to find his fellow forth, Unseen, inquisitive, confounds himself: So I, to find a mother and a brother, In quest of them, unhappy, lose myself.
