Inhaltsangabe

It’s all here:
• Just who was Shakespeare? • What drew him to London and what did he find here? • A pub crawl with John Falstaff, Shakespeare’s fat felon • A day in the life of an Elizabethan actor • How to cope with Elizabethan heckling • Reviews of Shakespeare’s plays by Cecil Arduous, arts critic of The Great Fart • Which play did Queen Elizabeth ban? • Shakespeare’s mates—Christopher Marlowe and Ben Jonson • Life at the Globe Theatre • How to be an Elizabethan celebrity

William Shakespeare lived in one of the city’s most exciting periods—during Queen Elizabeth I’s reign. He is our greatest writer and this book recreates what life must have been like for him—from the low life of the taverns and the brothels, to the life of the court, all of which he experienced and all of which he put into his magnificent works.
