Read Romeo and Juliet

Iago whispers and the Moor of Venice believes him; the tragedy of a handkerchief.

The prince, the ghost and the delay; the most quoted play in English.

Three witches, one prophecy and a Scottish couple who take it literally; the short, bloody one.

A king divides his kingdom among his daughters and goes mad on the heath.

Lovers, fairies and a weaver with a donkey's head in an Athenian wood.

An American ambulance driver and an English nurse in the Italian war; the retreat from Caporetto.
