Shakespeare's timeless comedy of lovers' seductions, fanciful deceits and marital fidelity
SHAKESPEAREAN DRAMA OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY
Unfamiliar English accents, so prevalent in most Shakespearean productions, are absent from this series. English and drama teachers, as well as the typical playgoer, will find this feature of tremendous value. Shakespeare's own language is preserved; clarity of both language and story is achieved.
