Notes: | - | |||||
Synopsis: | Multi-award winning and widely-produced play about the murky goings-on of spies and playwrights in the Elizabethan Theatre. Strong contemporary flavour in style and language. Features William Shakespeare, Robert Green and an Australian Cut-Purse. Robert Greene lives in a noisy, bustling underworld of spies, crooks and punks, fending off the debt collectors and arch-rivals, Marlowe and Shakespeare. A play bursting with life and humour, CHEAPSIDE provides a fascinating account of the lot of professional playwright - and suggests that it may not have changed much over the last four hundred years. | |||||

Synopsis: | A new and updated version of the infamous "lost" Elizabethan play, "The Isle Of Dogs". The play that almost strangled English Drama at birth, turned a virgin into a raging Queen and her privy councillors into dedicated spiophobes. This play is part epic theatre, part road movie and part stand-up comedy routine; a sixteenth century romp in contemporary underclothes with authorship variously attributed to Thomas Nashe, Benjamin Jonson, William Shakespeare and Arthur Prickshafte. Arthur who. . .? You may well ask. . . | |||||

Synopsis: | Part irreverent bawdy comedy, part political thriller, this play explores life on the Elizabethan stage and surmises on the mysterious events following Saturday 7th February 1601 when Shakespeare's company put on a single matinee production of Richard II - a play concerning the overthrow of a monarch. The following day Queen Elizabeth I imprisons her former favourite, the Earl of Essex, for leading a failed rebellion against her. The queen's fearsome agent, Frances Bacon, terrorises Shakespeare, the players and Shakespeare's 'dark lady' whilst conducting his investigation into why the players chose to put on that play and discovers they were paid a considerable bonus by the Earl of Essex. On the 25th Essex is executed. Shortly after Will Kempe leaves London to become a writer in provincial exile, while Shakespeare and his company move their theatre away from Shoreditch, timber by timber, to establish The Globe on Bankside. | |||||
