Description: The play is about twins, both named Antipholus, who have twin servants, both named Dromio. After a shipwreck, the twins are separated, with one Antipholus and Dromio reaching Ephesus and the other pair returning to Syracuse. Twenty years later they all arrive in the same city, with hilarious confusion. Mr. Pickett suggests that the production should have the flavor of a Marx Brothers movie, full of energy, brisk tempo, and zany business. "It should be electric but never silly or artsy," he advises.
