Gifford, adding that her group's fight is to maintain a diverse mix of shops and restaurants.

Even then, the territory was an exotic ethnic mix that included Indo-Aryan Assamese, Assamese-speaking Hindus in the Brahmaputra valley, dozens of hill tribes of Mongoloid stock, and indigenous plains tribes.

Naturally, all sense of identity is passed through the proverbial mix master of comedy, as Antipholus's wife Adriana (Susan Larson) switches husbands, the husbands switch servants, the servants switch wives, no one knows what anyone is talking about, and so forth until the happy ending, in which no, better not give it away (It's too obvious anyway...
