The story begins in Avon, where young Will toils in obscurity, committed to his work despite innumerable obstacles, not the least of which is the devastating Black Plague. Soon enough, the playwright's words capture the attention of the royal court, sealing his fate and fortune. In turns tragic and giddily funny, the series, written by John Mortimer (TEA WITH MUSSOLINI), offers a rich, nuanced perspective on the most famous scribe of all time. [More]
