Cymbeline (Version 2)

LibriVox recording of Cymbeline (Version 2) by William Shakespeare. Read in English by Sonia; Tony Addison; Tomas Peter; Craig Franklin Cymbeline is one of the last plays Shakespeare wrote, classified by scholars as a late romance or comedy. It's famous for featuring a highly convoluted plot that oftentimes feels like a grab bag of elements from Shakespeare's greatest hits: we have virtuous lovers, a temperamental monarch, a conniving stepmother, an untrustworthy Italian, an arrogant clod, kidnapped siblings, cross-dressing, battles, a devious murder plot, and (of course) some shocking plot twists. And to perform it all? Three men ( Tony Addison , Craig Franklin , and Tomas Peter ) and one woman ( Sonia ), determined to give you a performance of this oft-neglected piece that you will never forget.
