Clear, Concise and CLEAN!

I teach Drama at a Classical Christian school and whereas Shakespeare is encouraged, some of his work is well, um...shall we say, a bit "naughty". I like this book because Mr.Wilson gives brief scenes that show range of character without making me blush in front of the Headmaster!
