DESCRIPTION:
Palamon and Arcite, cousins and bosom friends, are taken prisoner by Duke Theseus of Athens. This dark-edged tragicomedy is now widely regarded as having been written by Shakespeare in collaboration with John Fletcher. Both fall instantly in love with her, and their attachment to each other turns to hate. Composed sometime in 1613-14, The Two Noble Kinsmen is the final play in Shakespeare's dramatic career. While in captivity, they spy the beautiful Emilia. Jonathan Firth plays Palamon, Nigel Cooke is Arcite, and Emilia is played by Helen Schlesinger.
