{"product_id":"shakespeares-sister-9780573111907","title":"Shakespeare's Sister","description":"Judith Shakespeare has one ambition: to be a playwright. When her debt-ridden father forces her into an engagement, she runs away with the help of dashing actor Ned Alleyn, hoping to join her brother in London. But when Judith arrives in the plague-stricken capital, she finds her brother gone, Ned engaged to another, and her play refused. Judith and the players confront poverty in the midst of economic depression, in a society where women's freedoms are curtailed, under a government confronting religious extremism in a climate of fear. Judith must choose between succumbing to social pressures, and following her dream, no matter what the cost. Shakespeare's Sister was first performed as a staged reading at the Theatre Royal Haymarket as part of the Theatre Royal Haymarket Masterclass Trust's \"Pitch Your Play\" scheme, supported by the No�l Coward Foundation and the Vernon Charitable Trust. It was revived as part of the Shakespeare400 celebrations at King's College London.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/correctionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10128444\"\u003eEmma Whipday\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Samuel French Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/08\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 98\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780573111907\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0573111901\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/correctionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-DRA\"\u003eDrama\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/correctionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-DRA003000\"\u003eEuropean | English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Samuel French Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45914312343727,"sku":"9780573111907","price":23.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/9255\/8767\/files\/img_4eb535f1-80ab-40c2-823d-91976eaa97e0.jpg?v=1758823335","url":"https:\/\/www.correctionsbookstore.com\/products\/shakespeares-sister-9780573111907","provider":"Corrections Bookstore ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
