Synopsis

Blackstone Audio is proud to present the Oregon Shakespeare Festivals production of Measure for Measure, Shakespeares compelling tragicomedy that explores restraintand lack thereof. Who legislates morality? The dukes authoritarian deputy, Angelo, is hellbent on stamping out moral decay. He reactivates outdated draconian laws and aims his arrogant crosshairs at a young man whose fiance is pregnant, sentencing him to death. Angelo is sternly incorruptibleuntil he meets Isabela, a beautiful religious novice whose desirability arouses him. Flavored with live music by the mariachi band Las Colibri, this vigorous, modern production of Shakespeares tragicomedy reveals what can happen when sex, religion, and politics collide.
