One of Shakespeare`s late romances - along with Pericles, The Tempest and The Winter`s Tale - Cymbeline tells three connected stories: the resistance of a British king to Roman rule, the story of two lovers Imogen and Posthumous driven apart by the lies of the villainous Jachimo, and the tale of two young princes kidnapped from the royal household and raised in the wild. Weaving together themes from Shakespeare`s greatest comedies and tragedies, this is a play in which disguise and misunderstanding eventually give way to revelation and reconciliation.
