Sinopsis

'Sometime late in 1598, Christopher Marlowe, the brilliant poet and playwright, wrote a scathing letter to his patron and protector, Sir Thomas Walsingham. Accusing him of having an 'inconstant mind', Marlowe threatened to 'set down a story of faults concealed' and challenged him to 'hate me when thou wilt.' Sir Thomas, veteran of his 'uncle?s' anti-Catholic intelligence service, would immediately have recognized the danger. Marlowe, who most of the English-speaking world believed had notoriously been 'stabd to death by a bawdy seruing man' in a sleazy tavern brawl in mid-1593, was very much alive and threatening to reveal a secret that had kept them both safe for more than five years.'Continued in Chapter One, Christopher Marlowe?s Dangerous Letter'From the Author of Marlowe?s Fate ('a thoughtful, well-crafted drama', 'an intriguing, surprisingly enjoyable exploration' - Stage Buddy, 'A nifty, literate literary mystery', 'keeps the audience on its toes and constantly surprised' - Theatre Pizzaz) and The Glen ('a lovely coming of age story that had me walking out of the theatre with tears in my eyes and smile on my face' - onstageblog.com, 'a ?must see? play' - theatrecriticism.com)
