What is the show about?
The Duke of Vienna asks a nobleman, Angelo, to assume leadership of the city and uphold the law while he—the Duke—is away traveling. He commands Angelo to uphold the law, and reveals that he plans to remain in the city in secret, disguised as a friar, to see how the city responds to what he expects will be Angelo's more strict upholding of the law.
Some time after the Duke's departure, Angelo imposes a death sentence on Claudio, who has impregnated his wife-to-be, Juliet, before their marriage. Lucio, a friend of Claudio's, relays this news to Isabella, Claudio's sister who has begun training to be a nun. Isabella's religious beliefs cause her to disapprove of Claudio's transgression, but Lucio persuades her to beg Angelo for clemency. She pleads her case in front of Angelo, who appears to grow gradually more sympathetic. He tells her to return tomorrow to hear his decision.
