Media Reviews
A deliciously saucy Elizabethan romp guaranteed to delight both historical mystery buffs and fans of the enormously popular film Shakespeare in Love.
Expert...[Marston] keeps introspection to a minimum, letting his imagination run when envisioning the period, which he does in high style, from intrigue at Court to events on stage, to the taprooms of London.
