Arkangel Shakespeare
The Complete Arkangel Shakespeare is a notable series of audio drama presentations of all 38 plays of William Shakespeare, released from 1998 onwards on cassette and then on CD. The plays are unabridged and based on The Complete Pelican Shakespeare, published by Penguin Classics. The production features nearly 400 actors, almost all past or present members of the Royal Shakespeare Company. The cast members of each play are listed below.
The Complete Arkangel Shakespeare won the 2004 Audie Award for "Best Audio Drama".[1]
The logo on the box cover features a figure of Shakespeare composed entirely from books, reminiscent of the Renaissance Italian painting The Librarian by Giuseppe Arcimboldo.

gollark: Technically, Python (in CPython) probably can via `ctypes`.
gollark: Being wildly unsafe all the time is probably of some value in, say, embedded systems, but mostly it is better to have safe code which is not going to do memory-unsafe things.
gollark: I'm not saying "change it", just that it is not perfect.
gollark: At least for high-level/application programming use.
gollark: As I have said, a language *should* make it hard to do unsafe/bad/insecure things.
