What happens when the question of authorship leads to something larger? By holding the works of Shake-speare against the life of Edward de Vere, we explore the experiences that may have shaped the words, the extraordinary world those words helped shape, and the transformation of the artist himself. Part biography, part historical inquiry, part journey into the creative process, Shakespeare’s Shadow asks us to look again at what we think we know and consider what becomes visible when we step into the shadow.
