The play is a comedic adaptation of the classical myth of Amphitryon, a Theban general, who returns home from war to find that his wife, Alcmene, has been visited by the god Jupiter in his guise. Jupiter has taken on the form of Amphitryon and has spent the night with Alcmene, resulting in her pregnancy.
