Here are the stories of ten key Shakespeare plays: Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, Twelfth Night, King Lear, Richard III, Othello, Macbeth, The Tempest, Henry V, and A Midsummer Night’s Dream. David Timson presents the complex plots in a clear, entertaining and informal style, presenting the main characters in the context of the famous lines. The stories contain important passages from the plays themselves, taken from the award winning Naxos AudioBooks recordings. This is a 3 CD set which not only entertains but acts as an ideal ‘starter pack’ for children going to see the plays of Shakespeare.
