De Klucht der Vergissingen

A weary merchant from Syracuse stands before the Duke of Ephesus, pleading for mercy as a harsh new law threatens every traveler between their cities. He recounts a harrowing shipwreck that left his family scattered, his wife clinging to hope while their twin sons survive on a fragile raft. The courtroom scene is tense, yet the merchant’s tale is laced with the absurdity of mistaken identities that already seem to haunt his life.

Meanwhile, two sets of identical twins—brothers and their servants—wander the streets of Ephesus, each unaware that their doppelganger walks the same alleys. Simple misunderstandings quickly snowball into a tangled web of accusations, jealousies, and comedic chaos. Listeners will be drawn into a lively world where pride, love, and the quirks of fate collide, promising laughter as the characters stumble through a cascade of errors.
