Synopsis

William Shakespeare is widely regarded as the greatest writer of the English language. Works of Romeo and Juliet, Othello, A Mid Summer's Night Dream and The Taming of the Shrew have been taught and been on stage since they were written. His influence on culture is far more reaching as he has invented many of the words that we are using today. Timon of Athens is Shakespeare's most obscure work, this tragedy starts of with a fabulously rich man that wastes his wealth on his friends. After losing everything he despises people and humanity that leads him to his grave.
