The Comedy of Errors is a play by William Shakespeare that revolves around two sets of identical twins, both named Antipholus and Dromio. Separated at birth, they unknowingly end up in the same city, leading to a series of misunderstandings and mistaken identities. The chaos escalates as each twin encounters the other’s friends and family, resulting in comedic situations. The play explores themes of identity, family, and the nature of reality. Set in the city of Ephesus, it combines elements of farce and slapstick humor, making it one of Shakespeare's shortest and most accessible works.
