Product Description
One of Shakespeare's greatest comedies, from the rhetoric of Leonato's opening lines to Benedick's last pun. The variety ranges from Dogberry's anxiety to be "writ down as an ass", to the sentiment in Claudio's penance - yet it is Beatrice and Benedick who carry off the prize in the end.
