Description:
In 1609, William Shakespeare published a collection of 154 sonnets, widely considered the greatest lyric sequence in English literature. The central mystery of this work – the identities of "the young man" and "the dark lady" who appear in all but two of the sonnets – has captivated audiences for centuries. This compelling performance brings Shakespeare’s England to life, weaving together excerpts from his plays and poems with insights into the poet and playwright himself, revealing the figures subtly present throughout his sonnets and life. Starring Rupert Graves, Tom Sturridge, Indira Varma, Anna Chancellor, and Zoë Wanamaker. Contains mature themes and explicit language; some content may be objectionable. Produced by the Open University.
