Two Gentlemen of Verona
by William Shakespeare
Synopsis
Leaving behind both home and beloved, a young man travels to Milan to meet his closest friend.
Once there, however, he falls in love with his friend's new sweetheart and resolves to seduce her.
Love-crazed and desperate, he is soon moved to commit cynical acts of betrayal.
And comic scenes involving a servant and his dog enhance the play's exploration how passion can prove more powerful than even the strongest loyalty owed to a friend.
