Description
The Second Best Bed by Avril Rowlands is a one-woman play that explores the life of Shakespeare's widow Anne after his death. With humour and pathos, the play delves into the question of whether Shakespeare wrote his own plays.
First performed at the Swan Theatre in Worcester in 2012, this book has received critical acclaim for its unique perspective on one of literature's most famous figures. Now available as a paperback edition, the book offers a fascinating insight into Anne's memories and experiences.
This thought-provoking play raises important questions about authorship and legacy, leaving readers to ponder the truth behind Shakespeare's works.
