New York, NY – BritBox, the subscription streaming service from BBC Studios and ITV with the largest collection of British television content in North America, will launch the full BBC Television Shakespeare Collection on May 26 exclusively on the platform. This is the first time all 37 adaptations will be available to stream in one place.

The priceless collection includes some of the finest comedies and dramas in the English language, each celebrating the Bard’s iconic contributions to the theatre. These adaptations feature some of the most masterful performers of all time. Amongst the plays are A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM and AS YOU LIKE IT with Oscar Winner Dame Helen Mirren, CYMBELINE with Robert Lindsay, HENRY VI PART with Oscar Winner Brenda Blethyn (Vera), THE TAMING OF THE SHREW with Emmy Winner John Cleese, and ROMEO AND JULIET with Golden Globe Winner Alan Rickman.

“Never before have all 37 of BBC’s Shakespeare collection been available in one place,  as a huge Shakespeare connoisseur, selfishly I wanted this for myself, I hope everyone feels the same,” states Soumya Sriraman, President & CEO BritBox. “We continue on our promise to be the only authentic British service available.”
