The Merchant Of Venice

Shylock, a Jewish moneylender, agrees to lend Antonio, a Venetian merchant, three thousand ducats. However, Shylock has one condition: should the loan go unpaid, he will be entitled to a pound of Antonio's own flesh... Greed, love, a dramatic trial, broad humour and some of Shakespeare's most famous speeches - The Merchant of Venice is both a comedy and a tragedy. With a full cast, including Antony Sher as Shylock and Emma Fielding as Portia, this is a stunning new production.
