Against a backdrop of intolerance suddenly buffeted by change, Shakespeare weaves interconnected tales of friendship, love, and family while bringing to life one of his strongest and most resourceful heroines—Portia, played by Sara Topham, of Stratford Festival/Shaw Festival fame. Mingling dreamy romance with senseless cultural conflict, The Merchant of Venice reveals that mercy can come from unexpected places.
