THE SHAKESPEARES: SCENES FROM A MARRIAGE

Was William Shakespeare ever really in love? On 27 November 1582, he registered to marry Anne Whateley in Worcester. But the next day, he bought a license to marry Anne Hathaway in Stratford. So begins the story of Shakespeare’s tangled affections.... Did he mean to marry them both? Did he actually love them both? And who was the ‘dark lady’ of the sonnets? Passion, cross-dressing, and heartbreak abound in this (sort of!) new play as we take on one of literary history’s greatest mysteries: Will Shakespeare in love... and in love....and in love!
