forest, she courts him without revealing her identity. Meanwhile, Phebe

confusion.

Macbeth
Murder
and madness, witches and war: a recording of Macbeth, perhaps Shakespeare’s
best known tragedy. Macbeth, a general in King Duncan’s army, is given a
prophecy by a trio of witches: he himself will become king. Fired by ambition
and goaded by his ruthless wife, he murders Duncan and assumes the throne. More
killings follow as Macbeth attempts to retain his crown, until he discovers
that prophecies are not always what they seem.

The
Merchant of Venice
The
Merchant of Venice was probably written between 1596 and 1598, and was printed
with the comedies in the First Folio of 1623. Bassanio, an impoverished
gentleman, uses the credit of his friend, the merchant Antonio, to borrow money
from a wealthy Jew, Shylock. Antonio pledges to pay Shylock a pound of flesh if
he defaults on the loan, which Bassanio will use to woo a rich heiress, Portia.
A subplot concerns the elopement of Shylock's daughter Jessica with a
Christian, Bassanio's friend Lorenzo. In its focus on love and marriage, the
play shares certain concerns with Shakespeare's other comedies. Yet its
depiction of the tensions between Jews and Christians in early modern Venice -
and its highly dramatic trial scene in Act 4 - create darker currents in the
play.

A
Midsummer Night's Dream
A
Midsummer Night’s Dream, Shakespeare at his most fanciful. The play opens with
Theseus, Duke of Athens, preparing for his wedding. Egeus complains to Theseus
that his daughter Hermia refuses to marry Demetrius. When Hermia is given the
choice between marriage to Demetrius or life as a nun, she and her true love
Lysander flee into the forest. Demetrius follows them; and Helena, who loves
Demetrius, follows him. Also in the forest are Oberon and Titania, king and
queen of the fairies, at odds with one another. At Oberon’s behest, Puck causes
Demetrius to fall in love with Helena — oops, he missed, that was Lysander
instead. Mayhem ensues. In the meantime, a group of bumbling craftsmen
rehearses a play. Puck gives one of them, Bottom, the head of an ass and makes
Titania fall in love with him. Further hilarity results as Bottom sees nothing
at all odd about this. Eventually everything is straightened out, Bottom and
the rest “perform” their play, there is a triple wedding, and Puck assures us
the whole thing has been a dream.
