by William Shakespeare
Directed by Paul Prescott
8 July at 20:00
Internationally renowned Shakespeare scholar, actor and director Paul Prescott (Associate Director Global Shakespeare, Warwick University) leads a dynamic cast in a staged reading of Shakespeare’s first great comedy of young love: The Two Gentlemen of Verona. Proteus and Valentine are the best of friends until Proteus falls for the new object of Valentine's affections – Silvia. Forsaking his first love, Julia, Proteus sets out to betray his unsuspecting friend, only to find that both Silvia and Julia have a thing or two to teach him about loyalty and love. With a Duke, a debutante, and a dog (!) joining the lovers, Shakespeare's gentlest romantic comedy delights.
