The Two Gentlemen of Verona

Shakespeare’s first play, a comedy on friendship, love, deception and character change, shows the wit and humour, the funny dialogues and fast-paced, two-faced action that will soon crown him the uncontested king of drama. With the forgiving, unifying prospect of a double marriage after dramatic conflict, “one feast, one house, one mutual happiness”, it has a catchy, sweet happy ending.
