It is 1605, the year of the infamous Gunpowder Plot. Shakespeare is busy writing Macbeth to justify King James's right to the throne, and dallying with his Danish Queen to satisfy other kinds of desires. Overflowing with colorful Jacobean characters such as Ben Jonson, John Marston, Sir John Harington, and Guy Fawkes, this play takes a peek into the history of a troubled time and into the heart of a troubled genius.
