Winner of the 2017 CINE Golden Eagle Award for Best Digital Series and currently blitzing around the international film festival circuit, Shakespeare Republic: #LoveTheBard (Season Two) is firmly putting screen adaptations of Shakespeare back on the map ... all the way from Australia. "... this polished, beautifully made series from director/producer Sally McLean ... a fine use of the platform and, more importantly, a very fine adaptation of the Bard ... Shakespeare Republic is put together with grace and wit. An assortment of actors do terrific work making the (non-dumbed down) dialogue accessible, prying it open with great care and skill." - Luke Buckmaster, The Guardian Using some of Shakespeare's most intriguing monologues and sonnets, Season Two of Shakespeare Republic explores a day in the life of 13 of Shakespeare's characters who exist in the same world, living their lives in modern society, sometimes meeting, sometimes passing like ships in the night, all using Shakespeare's original text. "... incredibly clever and highly addictive ..." - Made In Melbourne Film Festival, Australia Shakespeare Republic - all the world's a stage ...

    A great anthology series.
    This is Shakespeare 2.0! A web anthology dedicated to the "Bard" words and poetry. Some episodes are truly breathtaking. Casting is perfect and some acting performances are incredibly powerful.
