Will it all work out in the end or are the two star-crossed lovers destined for tragedy? Shakespeare in Love is a play with music that was adapted for the stage from the 1998. With opening night – and the wedding day – fast approaching, the plots race toward a parallel conclusion. Under the veil of secrecy, Will and Viola’s passionate love affair becomes the basis of the very play he is writing – Romeo and Juliet. Both are despondent when they learn that Viola’s father has promised her to the stuffy Lord Wessex in order to gain a title for their family. Penniless and indebted to two demanding producers, struggling young playwright William Shakespeare is tormented by writer’s block until he meets the beautiful Viola de Lesseps, daughter of a wealthy merchant, whose fiery passion for poetry and drama leaves her secretly longing to be an actor.
