My Son - Will as told by Shakespeare's Dad
Part fact, part fantasy and part fun, this is an eccentric, inventive, occasionally outrageous and surprisingly moving account of the life and times of a little boy who became the world's most famous playwright from the man who knew him best.
400 year on Shakespeare's father finally breaks his silence to recall life with Stratford's literary genius.
Colin George evokes the brilliance and horrors of 17th century London and the joys and pains of being a parent to such a precocious talent.
