The sonnets are a collection numbering 154 poems dealing with themes such as the passage of time, love, beauty, and mortality. They were probably written over a long period of Shakespeare's life up until 1609, when they were first printed. The first 17 poems, traditionally referred to as the "procreation sonnets", are addressed to a young man urging him to marry and have children in order to immortalize his beauty by passing it on to his descendants.

Les Bas-Fonds de Maxime Gorki est un portrait poignant des habitants opprimés et démunis d'une cave délabrée en Russie. Cette pièce phare, jouée pour la première fois en 1902, offre un aperçu brut et sans faille des dures réalités de la pauvreté et des exclus de la société. Avec un casting diversifié de personnages, de la voleuse philosophique Satine à la tragique Anna et à son amant tourmenté Kostylev, Gorki tisse magistralement une tapisserie de souffrance humaine, de résilience et d'aspiration inextinguible à la dignité au milieu de la misère.
