"Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall," writes Shakespeare in Measure for Measure.
Brothels and nunneries, betrothals and beheadings – welcome to Vienna! In his darkest comedy, Shakespeare tells the tale of the aspiring nun, Isabella, who is faced with an impossible choice after her brother is sentenced to death for the crime of “fornication.” When a corrupt Angelo propositions her and says she can trade her virginity for her brother’s life, Isabella’s decision has consequences for all.
