Welcome to the Renaissance, where a leather-clad wordsmith with swiveling hips named Shakespeare is rocking London! Meanwhile, down-on-their-luck playwrights Nick and Nigel Bottom can’t summon a single sonnet. Then, when Nostradamus himself foretells “the future of theatre,” the Bottom brothers hatch a plan to rise to the top. Hilarity ensues in this campy lampoon of England’s first-ever musical.
