A comedy - although with human trafficking. Also a tempest, a shipwreck or two (described by the actors but invisible to the audience - and thus perfectly adapted to an audioplay), a wallet with special trinkets lost at sea, and a special fishing line.... And of course the almost unpronounceable names of antiquity.
