Shakespeare in the Park
Shakespeare Dallas is doing Merchant of Venice this October to conclude it’s critically acclaimed 2008 Shakespeare in the Park series. Experience the power of Shakespeare’s spoken text.
Greed and prejudice tell the story of The Merchant of Venice, Shakespeare's suspenseful, dark comedy. In Venice, Bassanio asks the merchant Antonio for a loan which Antonio must borrow from the moneylender Shylock. While Bassanio is facing certain death, he must rely on his friends to save him from Shylock's revengeful demand of "a pound of flesh." "If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?"
