Story
An imprisoned man is certain that his supposed murder victim is alive; a female driver is pursued by a menacing figure in another vehicle; a young artist gets a big break; a restless beauty manages the perfect birthday celebration; an escaped Iraqi on Saddam Hussein's death list pays a visit to his homeland. How will they react? How would you? Cleverly styled, with richly drawn characters and ingeniously plotted story lines, each of the 12 tales ends with a delightfully unexpected turn of events.

Story
The Comedy of Errors is likely the very first play Shakespeare ever wrote, and for that reason alone it deserves a special place in literary history. Yet, despite the author's lack of maturity, the play is unmistakably the work of a burgeoning master. A farce of a type that was wildly popular in Shakespeare's day, The Comedy of Errors transcends its genre, and is as accessible and as entertaining as any of the Bard's later comedies.
