Tales From Shakespeare was originally written in 1807 by Charles Lamb and his sister, Mary, as more comprehensible (and enjoyable) versions of the original Shakespearian texts, specifically but not exclusively for children.

A tender love story, a serpentine villainess, a glittering setting in London society, and a showering of Wildean witticism are only a few of the reasons why this play has enjoyed hugely successful revivals in London, in New York, and on the silver screen. This 1895 drama is eerily prescient, as it examines the plight of a promising politician, desperate to hide a secret in his past. With empathy and wit, Oscar Wilde explores the pitfalls of holding public figures to higher standards than the rest of us.

Nie sind monströsere Gefahren überwunden und rachsüchtigere Götter überlistet worden als in der griechischen Antike. Stephen Fry haucht den Sagen um Perseus, Herakles & Ödipus neues Leben ein. Ob Jason mithilfe von Medeas Zauber das Goldene Vlies stiehlt oder Theseus durch Ariadnes List den Minotaurus überwindet - mit seinem unnachahmlichen Humor holt Fry die klassischen Stoffe in unsere Zeit. Er zeigt, dass hinter jedem Helden eine Heldin steht und dass es der Auflehnung der Helden gegen Zeus & Co. bedurfte, um der Welt von uns Menschen den Weg zu bereiten.

Razor-sharp wit inflames a competitive game of survival in the salons of 17th century France where, in this world of "finest appearances," one man's blunt honesty shatters his society's delicate web of manners. Often considered to be Moliere's Hamlet, this is a wickedly scathing satire.
