The Two Gentlemen of Verona is the earliest comedy written by Shakespeare (and possibly his first play), probably written around 1590-91. It focuses on two friends, Valentine and Proteus, whose friendship is disrupted by their mutual passion for the lovely Silvia. Proteus jilts Julia in order to pursue Silvia; she responds by enlisting the help of her maid Lucetta to dress as a boy and go after Proteus. The play also includes some wonderfully comic supporting characters, particularly Launce and his scene-stealing dog Crab. (Summary by Elizabeth Klett)

This story made me laugh out loud a few times and got me thinking about why it’s important to choose love rather than going along with every passion.
The perfect play.

My favorite play. It is about about friendship, betrayal, love, grief, and reconciliation. The perfect Drama.

Tecgnical quality of Silvia recording poor. I hate how DB pauses randomly.
