Mucedorus by William Shakespeare

"Mucedorus" by William Shakespeare is an Elizabethan romantic comedy first performed around 1590. Prince Mucedorus disguises himself as a shepherd to pursue the beautiful Princess Amadine of Aragon. After rescuing her from a bear, he wins her admiration but faces jealousy, false accusations, and banishment. When Amadine is captured by Bremo, a wild man of the woods, Mucedorus must adopt yet another disguise to save her and reveal his true identity. This wildly popular play blends romance, adventure, and comedy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
