Synopsis:
The events which led to the murder of Christopher Marlowe are recounted through the eyes of his friend and artistic collaborator, William Shakespeare. After Marlowe invites Shakespeare to the meetings of Sir Walter Raleigh's 'School of Night', Marlowe's heretical writings and loud public demeanour attract the attention of Sir Robert Cecil, who begins plotting to silence the playwright.
