Summary: In 16th century London, you start work as an actor at William Shakespeare's theatre, but soon realise it won't be easy. It'll take an excellent memory, a penchant for wearing dresses and a keen eye for avoiding rotten vegetables. But against all odds, you could do well here - just watch where you're pointing that cannon! Humorous illustrations bring the characters to life, while informative captions explain processes or chronological events.
