Sinopsis

Fear and Loathing in Elizabethan LondonAálost manuscript discovered in a wine-stained cutlery drawer in the ruins of aáShoreditch tavern. Is it a play? Is it a memoir? Is it a walking guide? Yes.ááIn this richly imagined work of historical fiction, we follow William Shakespeare,ánovice writer and barely-cast bit player, and Christopher Marlowe, literary rock staráand government informant, on a chaotic day-long ramble through 1592 London, aácity part plague, part poem, part open wound.ááAccompanied by their jester-companion Torche, whose wisdom is accidental, andátrousers questionable, the trio set off from the Rose Theatre in search of inspiration.ááWhat follows is a semi-drunken dérive through bear-baiting pits, apothecary markets,áalehouses, and the profane glory of the Mermaid Tavern, pursued by crypticáprophecies, bad actors, strange children, and the unsettling suspicion that somethingáin the city is watching.
