Multi-award winning and widely-produced play about the murky goings-on of spies
and playwrights in the Elizabethan Theatre. Strong contemporary flavour in style and
language. Features William Shakespeare, Robert Green and an Australian Cut-
Purse.
Robert Greene lives in a noisy, bustling underworld of spies, crooks and punks,
fending off the debt collectors and arch-rivals, Marlowe and Shakespeare. A play
bursting with life and humour, CHEAPSIDE provides a fascinating account of the lot
of professional playwright - and suggests that it may not have changed much over the
last four hundred years.
