Elizabeth Rex

This drama brings together William Shakespeare and Queen Elizabeth I, as they and the members of Shakespeare's acting troupe discuss what makes a man a man and a woman a woman. Much of the dialogue is between Elizabeth, who has reigned in essence as a man, and Ned, one of the actors who throughout his career has played women. On the eve of the execution of the Queen's former lover, the characters come to unexpected conclusions about identity, sex, humanity and love.
