The year is 1593. During the hottest summer on record, Death stalks London streets. Richard Burbage and his company of clowns perform a farce of wordplay, plague, and puppetry while being visited by one Upstart Crow. Based on actual persons, this mortality farce is pure theatrical fiction. Live a little. Runs 75 mins without intermission, and roles are open to six actors of any gender, identity, or ethnicity.
