About this listen

Shylock finds himself in court...and loses, despite seemingly having the law on his side. Portia comes in dressed as a man, saying she is a doctor lawyer, and she exposes a loophole in Shylock's case that not only saves Antonio, but conveniently flips the whole thing that now Shylock is on trial for plotting a Venetian's death. Oh, and Act V has a wedding that literally no ones cares about now because Act IV is an antisemitic hellscape.
