A review by emmaemmaemmaemma
The Two Gentlemen of Verona by William Shakespeare

4.0

Haha, I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Protheus is a trash man, but Valentine, oh dear Valentine. To go from victim, to king of the outlaws in a single scene is quite a feat. That plot point alone ticked this up to 4 stars for me. It seemed so out of left field, but really set his character up for that wild ending.

Lots of good laughs in this one once the trickier turns of phrase were deciphered. I think I need a Shakespearian dictionary for the rest of the plays as I continue working through them.

Sylvia and Julia were both pretty cool leading ladies, and the love triangles…squares…quadrangles? Were impressive.
