Measure for Measure is a play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in 1603 or 1604. Originally published in the First Folio of 1623, where it was listed as a comedy, the play`s first recorded performance occurred in 1604. The play`s main themes include justice, `mortality and mercy in Vienna,` and the dichotomy between corruption and purity: `some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall.` Mercy and virtue predominate, since the play does not end tragically.

Measure for Measure is often called one of Shakespeare`s problem plays. It was, and continues to be, classified as comedy, though its tone may defy those expectations.
