Two Gentlemen of Verona Blu-ray

Valentine and Proteus are best friends until they fall in love with the same girl. Having travelled to Milan in search of adventure, they both fall for the Duke's daughter Silvia. But Proteus is already sworn to his sweetheart Julia at home in Verona, and the Duke thinks Valentine is not good enough for his Silvia. With friendship forgotten, the rivals affections quickly get out of hand as the four young lovers find themselves on a wild chase through the woods, confused by mistaken identity and threatened by fierce outlaws before they find a path to reconciliation.

Press Reviews "There's a lovely summery feel to Simon Godwin's nimble-footed modern-dress production of this early Shakespeare comedy; it's a stylish and confident RSC debut." (Evening Standard) "Director Simon Godwin eagerly explores the light and dark sides of romance in a striking RSC debut ... A delightful evening." (The Guardian) "A superbly fleet-footed production of a play in which sunny comic exuberance is disconcertingly darkened by ominous shadows." (The Daily Telegraph) "An absolute treat..."
