written by Sebastian Michael
featuring the Sonnets of William Shakespeare

Performed by Sebastian Michael & Tom Medcalf

In a dynamic new take on an old question, two contemporary characters delve into some of the most glorious poetry ever composed, as they weave in and out of the past in search of a plausible truth about love. 

Everything is conjecture. Except the words...
