A pair of star-cross'd lovers -PrologueRomeo and Juliet was Shakespeare's first great tragedy, a richly lyrical love story that has long been one of the author's most popular plays for performer and audience alike. Romeo and Juliet is a simple but dramatic cautionary tale about the blindness that both love and hate can engender. As performed by Claire Bloom and Albert Finney, this lively production captures the youthful exuberance and poetic passion that characterize all of Shakespeare's early work and makes Romeo and Juliet in particular the greatest romantic creation in English Literature.This unabridged, full-cast recording is a wonderful way to experience and listen to Shakespeare out-loud.

Braunmuller who understand that these are plays for performance as well as great texts for contemplation." (Patrick Stewart)

Each volume features:
* Authoritative, reliable texts
* High quality introductions and notes
* New, more readable trade trim size
