Set sail for an epic saga stretching from London, all the way to Never Land and back. Before you can say, "Pixie dust, away!" -- Wendy, John and Michael Darling join JAKE AND THE NEVER LAND PIRATES for a soaring, swashbuckling, full-length adventure. Captain Hook -- fed up with being portrayed as a bumbling fool in Wendy's magical storybook -- flies the Jolly Roger to London and snatches the book away, so Peter Pan calls on Jake and his crew to help save the day. But there's no time to lose, because the longer Hook has the book, the faster everyone's memories of Pan and Never Land will fade away... forever! BATTLE FOR THE BOOK is an unforgettable celebration of teamwork and the magical power of storytelling.

In 1609, William Shakespeare published a collection of 154 sonnets, creating what is arguably the greatest lyric sequence in English literature - and at the center of this masterpiece lies a mystery that has endured for centuries. What are the identities of “the young man” and “the dark lady” to whom all but two of the sonnets allude? This moving performance brings to life the gritty reality of Shakespeare’s England, bits of the Bard’s plays and poems, and the consummate poet and dramatist himself as it exposes these personages unseen but so keenly felt in Shakespeare’s sonnets and in his life. Rupert Graves, Tom Sturridge, Indira Varma, Anna Chancellor, and Zoë Wanamaker star. Contains mature themes and explicit language. Some content may be objectionable. Produced by the Open University.

这部作品于2009年4月12日在德国Berliner Ensemble首演，时值莎士比亚《十四行诗》出版400周年之际。 　　罗伯特·威尔逊（Robert Wilson）执导的《莎士比亚十四行诗》(Shakespeare’s Sonnets)是绝妙的浪漫诗，难以用语言去概括。这些十四行诗被戏剧大师Jutta Ferbers挑选出来，他巧妙地改编了这些原本无意用于戏剧的迷人诗歌，用表演、朗诵、歌唱的方式表达出来；而Rufus Wainwright的作曲，混合了中世纪德国明尼苏达、古典、流行和卡巴莱摇滚的曲风，完美贴合了舞台的其他表现形式。莎士比亚比以往任何时候都更现代、更有活力。 　　在这部作品中，威尔逊充分开掘了莎士比亚154首十四行诗中所蕴含的颠覆传统的性别观，在男性和女性的欲望对象之间游移不定。几个典型的人物出现了：从男孩到傻瓜，从丘比特到神秘的黑女人，从英国女王到莎士比亚本人……威尔逊标志性的对时间、光线和肢体形态的塑造，与作曲家的时而浪漫、时而令人不安的配乐相融合，将观众带入一个悬浮在时空中的梦幻彼岸。

How do we enter the heightened, extravagant language of Shakespeare and yet feel truthful in our contemporary world? How do performers excite the audience with Shakespeare's rich imagery and dynamic rhythm, yet make it real for the twenty-first century? We assume that a sophisticated intellectual background is required to grapple with Shakespeare. But there is a much deeper, almost primal response as available to inner-city students as to their counterparts in the private school to the sound and rhythm in Shakespeare's language which arouses our emotions: feelings of anger and sorrow, of passion and laughter. This landmark five-part video series gives voice to Shakespeare's most beloved and widely known speeches and sonnets, performed by a powerhouse ensemble of American and British actors, as they delve into the structure, meaning and power of Shakespeare's language.
