剧情：《威尼斯商人》是否像一部现代作品？当你在台上看到一群身着当代服装的演员，仿佛过去400年间人性没有任何改变。来自巴以地区的阿拉伯演员马克拉姆·贾米尔·库利以其坚实的演技和身份的复杂性，极具说服力地演绎了夏洛克日常忍受的偏见与不公，促使人们再度审视当下依旧残留的种族、宗教和少数群体问题；奥利弗奖最佳女主角得主帕琪·费伦饰演的女主角鲍西娅狡黠聪慧，亦十分贴切。 　　此版复排导演波莉·芬得利是英国年轻导演中的佼佼者，近年在莎翁故乡这所历史悠久又勇于创新的皇家莎士比亚剧团创作过《泰特斯·安德洛尼克斯》、克里斯托弗·埃克莱斯顿主演的《麦克白》等佳作，皆有可圈可点的创新。《威尼斯商人》的故事虽然已经耳熟能详，芬得利还是为鲍西娅、安东尼奥、巴萨尼奥设置了更为复杂的关系和人物动机，注入当代语境；德国著名舞美设计师约翰内斯·舒茨带来的极简设计，轻盈地架空了年代背景；童声的现场演唱，更添举重若轻之感。

Plot：A rich merchant, Antonio is depressed for no good reason, until his good friend Bassanio comes to tell him how he's in love with Portia. Portia's father has died and left a very strange will: only the man that picks the correct casket out of three (silver, gold, and lead) can marry her. Bassanio, unfortunately, is strapped for cash with which to go wooing, and Antonio wants to help, so Antonio borrows the money from Shylock, the money-lender. But Shylock has been nursing a grudge against Antonio's insults, and makes unusual terms to the loan. And when Antonio's business fails, those terms threaten his life, and it's up to Bassanio and Portia to save him.
