Abstract: Over four hundred years after the Great Will’s death, we need to draw the line once more and review the more famous versions of his plays put on in drama theatres and cinema around the world, as well as their translations into other artistic languages. I have undertaken below a short review of some of the choreographic versions of his tragedies and comedies put on internationally, following the chronological order of their writing. There will have been many more, but this is not meant to be an exhaustive survey. My own contribution to the list is mostly about the Romanian versions, often little known abroad. I have also added the versions created by Romanian born choreographers living and working abroad, and those signed by foreign masters the Romanian audiences were able to attend.
Keywords: Shakespeare in dance, Shakespeare in ballet, Shakespearean choreographic versions, Shakespeare inspired music, choreographed sonnets.
