This was my first listen to a Shakespeare Appreciated production. I love Shakespeare but I am not an expert. So usually for me experiencing a play is more about how wonderful the words sound and the overall story. What was different about this listen was that they stop they provide lots of background up front, during the reading of the play, and after. Insight into things I would have otherwise missed or not understood. I very much enjoyed it and it brought several new dimensions to the play, which I though I knew fairly well.

I will be listening to others in the coming months.

Just terrific. Enough background and footnote type commentaryso that at no point are you bored or lost. Terrific for the Shalespeare novice. Listen to this and then watch the film or see the play and you will appreciate Shakespeare. My only complaint is that Smart Pass do not have more of Shakespeare's plays available yet in this ingenious format.

I’ve listened to several Shakespearean plays and this one also is outstanding. They do a great job with context and voice acting.

I love Shakespeare appreciated

We used this unabridged audio Julius Caesar to introduce our daughter to Shakespeare as a high school freshman. She rather enjoyed the play, had good comprehension of the plot, and agreed that the integrated annotations helped her. I had initially feared that the constant interruptions for annotation would be distracting, and that the additional listening time that they required would be discouraging, but this was not the case at all. The notes provided just enough of a guide to the action (I especially appreciated how it illuminated Mark Antony's crowd manipulation) without getting the listener bogged down unnecessarily with rabbit trails.

Excellent young scholar's intro to Shakespeare

This was my first try at listening to Shakespeare and it was enthralling. There's something about listening to the story unfold and imagining the settings and situations that, I believe, engage you more than even watching the play. The commentary was excellent! In fact as a Shakespeare novice, I don't think I would have gotten nearly as much out of it.

Indeed helped me to appreciate Shakespeare!
