Description

Shakespeare's Pericles has long been considered one of the less popular plays in his repertoire. However, this adaptation is a feat of editing and derring-do that brings the best of the play to life in a condensed form.

Author Paul Leonard Murray has simplified the famous play without dumbing it down, making it perfect for introducing students to Shakespeare and helping English Language Learners practice speaking and oracy skills. The Silly Shakespeare for Students edition is written in rhyming couplets, adding a touch of fun to the tragic story.

With production notes and a summary of the play included, this adaptation makes putting on Shakespeare easy and enjoyable, even for those with no prior experience in drama. Ideal for drama clubs, student theater, or speaking classes, this version of Pericles is sure to engage students and provide a new appreciation for Shakespeare.
