The Comedy of Errors

Hilarious fun, this early comedy is filled with the merry violence of slapstick and farce. When two sets of twins, separated and apparently lost to each other, all end up in the rowdy, rollicking city of Ephesus, the stage is set for mix-ups, mayhem, and mistaken identity--plus the timeless puns, jokes, gags, and suspense that makes this play a wonderful theatrical frolic and a brilliant tour de force of language and laughter.Author: William ShakespearePublisher: Signet BookPublished: 06/01/2002Pages: 256Binding Type: PaperbackWeight: 0.35lbsSize: 6.60h x 4.10w x 0.60dISBN: 9780451528391Accelerated Reader:Reading Level: 4Point Value: 1Interest Level: Middle GradeQuiz #/Name: 140098 / William Shakespeare's the Comedy of ErrorsAbout the AuthorWilliam Shakespeare (1564-1616) was a poet, playwright, and actor who is widely regarded as one of the most influential writers in the history of the English language.
