Measure for Measure is one of William Shakespeare's darker comedies, often categorized as a "problem play" due to its exploration of complex moral and ethical dilemmas. Set in Vienna, the play follows Duke Vincentio, who temporarily leaves the city under the strict governance of the puritanical Angelo. Angelo, enforcing laws with newfound severity, sentences young Claudio to death for impregnating his fiancée out of wedlock.

Claudio's sister, Isabella, a novice nun, pleads for her brother's life, but Angelo offers her a shocking proposition: her chastity in exchange for Claudio’s freedom. As Isabella grapples with this moral dilemma, the Duke secretly returns, disguised as a friar, to observe the events and ultimately orchestrate a plan for justice.

With themes of justice, morality, corruption, and mercy, Measure for Measure delves into the gray areas of human behavior, testing the boundaries of law and compassion. Despite its serious themes, the play contains moments of humor and resolution typical of Shakespearean comedy.
