In this play, William Shakespeare encounters a mysterious woman near the royal palace, mistaking her for his lady friend, only to discover she is Queen Elizabeth. The story explores themes of reputation and ambition, while also serving Shaw's aims to critique Shakespeare’s legendary status and support the creation of a national theatre in 1916. The recording features a detailed preface and a cast led by Peter Tucker as Shakespeare, with narration by Noel Badrian.
