This special collection brings together four critically lauded productions from the Royal Shakespeare Company for the first time - presenting old tales that are as pertinent to today’s world as they were in the Roman world. This box set includes Antony and Cleopatra, Coriolanus, Julius Caesar and Titus Andronicus. Directed and performed by some of the world’s leading interpreters of Shakespeare, this collection of plays represents the culmination of a large project for the Royal Shakespeare Company, showing the relevance of The Bard’s historical plays to today’s world. Aided by brilliant music from some of today’s greatest music creators, including Laura Mvula and Mira Calix, each individual play draws us endlessly into their unique, yet relatable, worlds whilst also showing the breadth Shakespeare’s dramatic greatness. Filmed throughout 2017 in Stratford-upon-Avon, these four plays prove that some of Shakespeare’s lesser performed works should still be looked at in high regard, and still have the power to hold a mirror to contemporary society, with their universal themes and often tragic central characters.
