“Will Shakespeare is suffering from writers block, he feels he’s lost his gift. He has promised ‘Romeo and Ethel the Pirates Daughter’ to various promoters but is unable to deliver. He needs a Muse… enter Viola who auditions for his company disguised as Thomas Kent hoping to fulfill her dream of becoming an actor!
What follows is an imagined fable of how Will Shakespeare came to write the most famous love story of all time.”
