A playscript set in Tudor times. When Bev and her friends, Tim and Hayley, go to audition for the Original Shakespeare Company at the Globe they unexpectedly find themselves propelled back in time to the Tudor age, and in the presence of William Shakespeare himself. His theatre company is in crisis - he needs young actors! But will shy Tim accept the role of Juliet, and will drama queen Bev accept that she's not suitable for it? The stage is perfectly set up for plenty of knockabout humour and witty dialogue.
