William Shakespeare
Abstract
Shakespeare's satirical romcom is being transplanted into the jazzy 1930s, where infatuation meets betrayal meets decadence meets downright silliness... 'In this adaptation, we are going to be working under the tradition of the Screwball Comedy, a film genre from the 1930’s and 40’s inspired by the fast-paced comedy and dramatic irony of Shakespeare’s pastoral comedies.' – Finnian Griffin, director
