In this book, acclaimed translator Te Haumihiata Mason brings the world of Romeo and Juliet alive in a language filled with wairua Maori. The plays of William Shakespeare have had an enduring appeal in te ao Maori - from Dr Pei Te Hurinui Jones's translation of The Merchant of Venice, Othello and Julius Caesar to Dr Merimeri Penfold's translation of Shakespeare's love sonnets. Te Haumihiata Mason has been central to that tradition, translating Troilus and Cressida for a performance at London's Globe Theatre in 2012 and now taking on Shakespeare's most beloved romantic tragedy. Love, duels, murders, marriages - Romeo and Juliet has it all. This te reo Maori translation will bring the play into the heart of Aotearoa.

William Shakespeare (1564- 1616) was a playwright, poet and actor. He is considered the most influential writer in the English language: his plays have been translated into almost every language and are performed in schools and theatres more often than any other playwright. Shakespeare wrote Romeo and Juliet in the 1590s and, from that time to today, it has been one of his most frequently performed plays. Born by the sea in Tauranga Moana and raised in Ruatoki in the nation of Tuhoe, Te Haumihiata Mason (Tuhoe, Ngati Pango, Te Arawa) has spent a lifetime devoted to te reo Maori.
