Will Shakespeare is out of money, ideas, and time to produce his next play. Enter Viola De Lesseps, an admirer of Shakespeare's work who desperately wants to be an actor, but is prohibited from doing so by the laws of the day. Disguising herself as a man, Viola auditions and wins a part in Will's work in progress. He quickly discovers her true identity and the two begin an ill-fated love affair that inspires the creation of "Romeo and Juliet." Bursting with action, intrigue, and witty dialogue, "Shakespeare in Love" brings The Bard to life!
