One of Shakespeare's wildest comedies is updated to take place in the wild west of America. Antipholus of Syracuse and his servant Dromio have left the safe east for the wilds of America in the late 1870's. They are on the lookout for their long-lost twin brothers. Unknown to them, their search is over when they enter the frontier town of Ephesus. There are many mix-ups and cases of mistaken identity when they meet the wife, friends and business partners of the very same twins they have been seeking, culminating in one of the wildest finishes in all of Shakespeare's works.

Trickster; con-artist; schemer; prankster; scam-artist; and jokester. Names to describe the character of Scapin, a sly servant, based on a type of clown perfected for the commedia dell`arte, who becomes the all-arranging schemer of his world of lovers and pompous employers. In one of Moliere's most popular comedies, Scapin puts his endless store of ingenuity to work, getting two lovesick young men married to the girls they pine for and, along the way, taking revenge on their grasping old fathers. A comedic romp filled with chases, slapstick, and a cavalcade of bizarre characters driven to the chaotic conclusion by the scams of Scapin.

Leontes, King of Sicilia, is transformed from true friend, loving husband, and doting father by his belief that his faithful wife Hermione has committed adultery with his old friend Polixenes. There is a bitter chill in his court as his legitimate child is denied, his wife lost, and his true friends exiled. But far off in Polixenes¹s realm of Bohemia, a land of pastoral simplicity, Leontes¹s true child lies hidden, a seed of hope which will bear fruit sixteen years later. A mix of kings and thieves, lords and shepherds, in tragic and comedic portions, is the fertilizer which will ultimately produce reconciliation and wonder.
