In Shakespeare's most controversial play, the opposing values of justice and mercy must be resolved. Antonio promises money to help his friend Bassanio woo Portia. He borrows the sum needed from the cruel Shylock, but there will be a dreadful penalty if the loan is not repaid.

But the dark shadow of Shylock is never far from the heart of this brilliant comedy as it moves toward its courtroom climax.
