Story3
The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, or more simply Hamlet, is set in Denmark, and recounts how Prince Hamlet exacts revenge on his uncle Claudius, who has murdered Hamlet's father, the King, and then taken the throne and married Gertrude, Hamlet's mother. The play vividly charts the course of real and feigned madness—from overwhelming grief to seething rage—and explores themes of treachery, revenge, incest, and moral corruption.

Story0
Discover the captivating tale of Pericles, Prince of Tyre, a Jacobean play that weaves themes of adventure, loss, and redemption. Although its authorship is partially attributed to William Shakespeare, modern scholars agree that he penned the majority of this enchanting story—827 lines that follow the gripping journey of Pericles and his daughter Marina. The first two acts, rich with the trials and tribulations of Pericles voyages, are thought to have been written by the lesser-known George Wilkins. Join us as we delve into this complex narrative that has intrigued audiences for centuries. (...

Story45
In The Tempest, long considered one of Shakespeare’s most lyrical plays, Prospero, a sorcerer, and his daughter, Miranda, have been stranded on an enchanted island for 12 years. When a shipwreck—caused by the eponymous tempest—brings enemies to the island, the stage is set for comedy, romance, and reconciliation. The Tempest embodies both seemingly timeless romance and the historically specific moment in which Europe began to explore and conquer the New World.

Shakespeare for Kids adapts and abridges Shakespeare's classic plays presenting them in shorter versions in plain English, in this case our abridged adaptation of The Merchant of Venice runs just under 20 minutes.

Written around the middle of his career, Much Ado About Nothing is one of Shakespeare's great festive comedies. The men are back from the war, and everyone is ready for romance. The dashing young Claudio falls for Hero, the daughter of Leonato, governor of Messina, and his friend Don Pedro helps him secure her affection.
