Description
This is one of Shakespeare's so-called black comedies. This thought-provoking play poses the stark question: when a young woman is offered the choice of saving a man's life at the price of her own chastity, what should she do? The play answers the question - and several more - in a merry and profound way. This full-cast, fully-dramatised rendition is directed by Peter Wood.
