A lively contemporary translation of Shakespeare’s sexiest play.
 In Antony and Cleopatra, Christopher Chen tackles the
sweeping epic of love and betrayal at the center of the story of
the rulers Antony of Rome and Cleopatra of Egypt. In this
contemporary translation of the play, Chen brings the political
intrigue and historical storytelling of Shakespeare to modern
audiences while preserving the poetic foundation of the play’s
language. Â This translation of Antony and Cleopatra was
written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s Play On!
project, which commissioned new translations of thirty-nine
Shakespeare plays. These translations present the work of “The
Bard” in language accessible to modern audiences while never
losing the beauty of Shakespeare’s verse. Enlisting the talents
of a diverse group of contemporary playwrights, screenwriters, and
dramaturges from diverse backgrounds, this project reenvisions
Shakespeare for the twenty-first century. These volumes make these
works available for the first time in print—a new First Folio for
a new era.
