The world-renowned Royal Shakespeare Company presents the most complete collection of Shakespeare’s plays to be captured in widescreen. Filmed onstage in Shakespeare’s hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon, this collection contains 35 unforgettable dramas, with iconic performances by leading actors.

From David Tennant’s “mesmerising” Richard II (Guardian ★★★★) and Paapa Essiedu’s “utterly engaging performance” as Hamlet (Times), to Josette Simon delivering “a Cleopatra to die for” (Observer) and Sir Antony Sher’s King Lear being hailed as “a crowning achievement in a major career” (Telegraph ★★★★), this special collection showcases British theatre at its finest.

Richard II: “One of the hottest tickets of the year” (TIMES ★★★★)
Love’s Labour’s Lost / Love’s Labour’s Won: “Quite simply, the best plays you’ll see anywhere” (SUNDAY MIRROR) /“Blissfully entertaining and emotionally involving” (TELEGRAPH ★★★★★)
The Merchant of Venice: “This haunting production crackles with tension“ (EVENING STANDARD ★★★★★)
Antony and Cleopatra: “Constant, gripping quality of a political thriller…a palpable hit” (EVENING STANDARD ★★★★)
The Tempest: “Simon Russell Beale…turning in one of the most profoundly moving performances of his career” (INDEPENDENT ★★★★)
Twelfth Night: “Adrian Edmondson steals the show as Malvolio... Terrific” (DAILY MAIL ★★★★)
Macbeth: “Christopher Eccleston and Niamh Cusack make a gripping central couple” (THE STAGE ★★★★★)
The Merry Wives of Windsor: “The play bursts with slap(stick) and tickle, prats and pratfalls and lots of laughs” (TIMES ★★★★)
