Staged - Timeless tropes, enduring stories - a new Puffin Classics collection

'We that are true lovers run into strange capers.'

Banished from her ambitious uncle's court, the lovesick Rosalind flees to the forest with her cousin, Celia. Disguised as shepherds, they soon meet the dashing Orlando, who is forced into hiding by a plot against his life and heartbroken at the separation from his beloved Rosalind.

Oblivious to her identity, Orlando grows close to Rosalind. But a local shepherdess has also fallen for Rosalind.

As their hopes and dreams entangle, can everyone get what they want?

Offering the complete and unabridged text, set in a dyslexic-friendly font and introduced by renowned YA authors, this beautifully designed collection is the perfect way to introduce YA readers to Shakespeare's most iconic stories.

About the Author

William Shakespeare was born to John Shakespeare and Mary Arden in late April 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. He wrote about 38 plays (the precise number is uncertain), many of which are regarded as the most exceptional works of drama ever produced, including Romeo and Juliet (1595), Henry V (1599), Hamlet (1601), Othello (1604), King Lear (1606) and Macbeth (1606), as well as a collection of 154 sonnets, which number among the most profound and influential love poetry in English. Shakespeare died in Stratford in 1616.
