Rómeó er í öngum sínum yfir stúlku sem vill ekkert með hann hafa, svo vinur hans tekur hann með sér í veislu í von um að aðrar fallegar stúlkur muni leiða hugann frá henni. Það tekst svo sannarlega. Þegar Rómeó læsir augunum við unga Júlíu er ást við fyrstu sýn. Til allrar óhamingju uppgötva Rómeó og Júlía brátt að þau tilheyra fjölskyldum sem eiga í ættardeilum og verða þau að halda rómantík sinni leyndri. Frægasta ástarsaga sem skrifuð hefur verið, Rómeó og Júlía, er vísun í bæði hreina sanna ást og harmleik.

The Life and Death of King John, a history play by William Shakespeare, dramatizes the reign of King John of England (ruled 1199 - 1216), son of Henry II of England and Eleanor of Aquitaine and father of Henry III of England. It is believed to have been written in the mid-1590s but was not published until it appeared in the First Folio in 1623. Performed by The Marlowe Society.

Vuonna 1603 ilmestynyt Othello on eräs Shakespearen tiukimmin rakentuneista draamoista. Tarinaa ajaa eteenpäin jääkylmän juonitteleva paholaishahmo, Jago. Tarina alkaa, kun Jago kokee tulleensa ylikävellyksi Othellon nimetessä Cassion luutnantiksi. Othello, jolta tragedia saa nimensä, on pohjoisafrikkalaislähtöinen kenraali Venetsian kaupunkivaltiossa. Ensimmäisten kostotoimiensa epäonnistuttua Jago jatkaa tuhoisia metkujaan, ja vaikka tämän uratavoitteet lopulta täyttyvät, ei Jago lopeta. Hän myrkyttää Othellon ja tämän rakastetun Desdemonan välisen rakkauden.
