Summary

By Shakespeare? Almost certainly not, but 1) it was found in a volume labeled Shakespeare in the library of Charles II, and 2) C. F. Tucker Brooke included it in his 1818 Shakespeare Apocrypha as one of 14 possible plays that could be attributed to Shakespeare. At any rate, it is a decent comedy with William the Conqueror in disguise, and Fair Em not what she appears to be either. - Summary by ToddHW Cast list: William the Conqueror: HelloCentral Zweno, King of Denmark: Alan Mapstone Duke Dirot: David Purdy Marquis of Lubeck: Beeswaxcandle Mountney: Inkell Manville: Hamlet Rozilio: Bev J Stevens Dimarch: redrun Danish Embassador: Inkell The Miller of Manchester: ToddHW Trotter, his Man: Greg Giordano Citizen of Chester: Agnes Robert Behr Blanche, Princess of Denmark: Kelly S.
