Reviews

Perfect for anyone who struggles to understand Shakespeare... hilarious and informative, they really bring Shakespeare to life
*Reality's a Bore*

What finer way to mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death than a series of witty modern reworkings...Shakespeare reduced to 100 pages of pithy pentameter with smart side notes.
*Evening Standard*

Witty, fresh takes on Shakespeare
*The Times*

Hilarious - and all the better for those of us who know our Shakespeare back to front
*Harriet Walter*

Shrewd interpretations of the Bard; funny footnotes too.
*Hugh Bonneville*
