      I bought my DVD copy on Amazon, but the Globe has a streaming service where you can subscribe or buy digital versions of the plays individually. This one is the 2013 Globe on Screen production 😊

    Paul Chahidi is a sublime Maria -- the best actor of either gender I've ever seen in the role.

      Close to how Shakespeare’s own time would have done it, perhaps, but kinda OTT in a modern production of the play which is all about cross dressing anyway.
