Measure for Measure
This, one of Shakespeare's later comedies, is often called a "dark" comedy because of its focus on lust and death in a politically and morally corrupt Vienna-with much of the action taking place inside a prison.
All's Well That Ends Well
A poor physician's daughter heals a king and is rewarded with the aristocratic husband of her choice, in spite of his protests, in a compelling play that combines a folktale plot with a sophisticated look at the differences between word and deed.
Troilus and Cressida
One of Shakespeare's great works, this innovative play is neither tragedy, comedy, nor romance. A story of ill-fated love, set during the siege of ancient Troy, it presents a strikingly modern view of a society falling apart, all moral value and coherence gone.
