The study considers the play as theatre and its text as script, enabling students to inhabit the imaginative world of the play in an accessible, meaningful and creative way. It aims to take a new approach to the play, encouraging students to participate actively in examining the script, to work in groups as well as individually, to treat the play as a script to be recreated, and to explore the theatrical/dramatic qualities of the text.

The format is also designed to help teachers, whether experienced or inexperienced., Two Gentlemen of Verona is commonly agreed to be Shakespeare's first comedy, and probably his first play. A comedy built around the confusions of doubling, cross - dressing and identity, it is also a play about the ideal of male friendship and what happens to those friendships when men fall in love. William Carroll's engaging Introduction focuses on the traditions and sources that stand behind the play and explores Shakespeare's unique and bold treatment of them. Special attention is given to the strong female figure of Julia and the controversial final scene.
