Enter Eddie Shakespeare

The course of true brotherhood never did run smooth!

1592. Meet Eddie Shakespeare, determined to follow his big brother William to London to become a player.

Eddie's plan is simple:

1. Run away from home in Stratford.

2. Find his big brother Will in the city.

3. Act in London's playhouses and win fame and glory.

As it turns out, the very last person the aspiring playwright William Shakespeare wants to see is his bothersome little brother, when he has more than enough worries of his own.

But the truth is: William Shakespeare's life is in danger.

And worse, only Eddie knows it.
