An unforgettable true story of love, loss, and laughter; also sheds a new light on a man you may think you know. A love letter to Shakespeare- after his death, dear friends compile his works and preserve their place in history.

Without William Shakespeare, we wouldn’t have literary masterpieces like Romeo and Juliet. But without Henry Condell and John Heminges, we would have lost half of Shakespeare’s plays forever!

They’ll just have to borrow, beg, and band together to get it done.
