Tim Slover brings fresh clarity to his contemporary version of Shakespeare' s final play. Playwright, poet, and novelist Tim Slover presents William Shakespeare' s and John Fletcher' s collaboration, The Two Noble Kinsmen, in a modern translation that retains all the wit, romance, and poetry of the original. For his last play, the Bard pulled out all the stops, creating a tragicomedy of heart' s yearning and deadly rivalry, and peopling it with heroes and heroines out of legend, including two of the greatest-and least known-female roles in the entire canon. Fletcher provided the music and dance. Slover brings it all vividly to life with fresh clarity and fiery passion in this new, contemporary version. This translation was written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival' s Play On! project, which commissioned new translations of thirty-nine Shakespeare plays. These translations present the work of "The Bard" in language accessible to modern audiences while never losing the beauty of Shakespeare' s verse. These volumes make these works available for the first time in print-a new First Folio for a new era.
Tim Slover is a playwright, poet, and novelist. Currently, he leads the University of Utah Department of Theatre' s playwriting and theatre, fine arts, and humanities in London study abroad programs.
