Measure for Measure
“When the Duke flees Vienna and leaves the wicked Angelo in charge, laws will be enforced more strictly. Angelo has Claudio--Isabella’s brother--arrested for premarital sex with his pregnant fiancée Juliet. Angelo assures Isabella that the only way she can save her brother is by agreeing to sleep with Angelo. However, Isabella is training to be a nun. Will Isabella choose to save her own chastity, or her brother’s life? One of Shakespeare’s so-called ‘problem plays,’ Measure for Measure doles out moments of comedy amid a broader discussion of morality, punishment, and lawfulness. “ (litcharts.com)
