From Library Journal:
Grade 4 Up-This contemporary rendition of Shakespeare is exciting and humorous. A planned wedding becomes a funeral in As You Like It, while a second marriage for Ophelia to Uncle Claudio outrages Hamlet and triggers a series of murders. Listeners will laugh at foreign minister Anthony, who has fallen madly in love with Cleo, Egyptian pop singer, and faces double suicide in a love misunderstanding. Experience the ultimate in computer technology as you phone or fax the Oracle at Delphi with personal problems, meet "tricky Dicky" in Richard III, and sing along to "Arden Days." Carole Boyd's delivery is superlative; her variations in tone and quality produce an orchestration of expression from cockney to male and female counterparts. "Billy" Shakespeare takes on an entirely new countenance, one of laughter and not dread. Listeners are encouraged to write their own modern interpretations. Older students and adults will laugh their way through Elizabethan writing in a modern mode.
