"Measure for Measure," while listed among William Shakespeare's comedies, is doubtless among the darkest of his lighter works and remains one of the Bard's most popular plays.
When the Duke of Vienna decides to go undercover in his own city, he leaves Angelo, his deputy, in charge and disguises himself as a monk to see how things progress in his absence. Angelo, who purports to be a man of honor and a stickler for the rules, arrests young Claudio for the "crime" of impregnating his girlfriend and sentences him to death, causing Claudio's sister Isabella - a novice nun - to come to Vienna and plead for her brother's life. Angelo, upon meeting Isabella, is immediately smitten and despite his claims of moral superiority, offers Isabella a choice: watch her brother die...or submit herself to Angelo's lust.
At times both hilarious and disturbing (and sometimes both at once), "Measure for Measure" is among Shakespeare's most debated and analyzed plays. It is presented here in its original and unabridged format.
