  An intense drama about the passionate and destructive love triangle that consumed Shakespere in his troubled middle years - adapting some of the most celebrated sexual raw and vitriolic love poems ever written.

Behind the lyrical beautifully crafted language a brooding obsession with the 'Lovely Boy'' and Shakespeare''s extra-marital relationship with a 'Dark Lady'' is revealed. The sonnet sequence is his unique meditation on love sex mortality and the creative urge which has tantalised scholars and casual readers alike.
