The Comedy of Errors (1983)

Aegeon of Syracuse arrives in Ephesus searching for his son, who vanished while looking for his long-lost twin and mother. Unfortunately, Ephesus has just initiated hostilities against Syracuse, threatening death to any Syracusans unless a hefty ransom is paid. Complicating matters, Antipholus, Aegeon’s son, and his servant Dromio—both identical twins—are bewildered by a series of encounters with locals who recognize them. As the chaos unfolds, mistaken identities and comedic misunderstandings spiral, creating a whirlwind of confusion in the already tense atmosphere of impending war.
