Without Shakespeare, we wouldn’t have literary masterpieces like “Hamlet”. But without his friends, we’d have lost half of his plays forever! After the Bard’s death, two actors are determined to preserve the words that shaped their lives. They’ll just have to borrow, beg, and band together to get it done, amidst the noise and color of Elizabethan London. This true story of love, loss and laughter sheds new light on a man you only think you know.
