The version of the play that we are watching this week is from the BBC Shakespeare Retold Series. It is available from Netflix and here is a YouTube link.
This is a modern adaptation of the play in contemporary English. It is important to have read the play before watching this version as you are going to examine the differences between the Shakespearean depictions of the Shrew and her female family members and the retold version of the Shrew and her family members.
If you order the film, hang on to it as Shakespeare Retold: Much Ado About Nothing is on the disk (this is also available on YouTube) and we will be watching that in the next module.
In a two-page essay that conforms to MLA rules for formatting, quotation and citation explain how Shakespeare Retold highlights, changes, supports or subverts aspects of the play.
