![An image of Christopher “Kit” Marlowe (Ncuti Gatwa) and William “Will” Shakespeare (Edward Bluemel) sitting at a wooden table at the center of the stage. The man on the left, Kit, is dark skinned, with short black hair, and he is wearing dark brown leather pants with a high collared matching jacket. He is leaning over the table with one knee on a stool and one hand braced against the table, leaning towards the other man. The man on the right, Will, has pale skin, light brown hair that is in slight disarray, and he is sitting on a stool facing the other man. He is wearing light brown leather pants, a white flowy shirt, and a brown vest. He is holding a quill in his hand. Below the image is the text “Inspired by the New Oxford Shakespeare editors’ conclusion that “Marlowe had collaborated with Shakespeare on the three Henry VI history plays”, Liz Duffy Adams offered an imagined representation of the playwrights’ processes and personal relationship [. . .] At ninety minutes without an interval, it was a fast-paced, quick-witted, ironic, sexy, and surprisingly emotional glimpse into lost moments in history.”. The image and the text are over a blue background with the SB logo.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sopgsks5ttyonu7quuyavquu/bafkreieeeica5kxtsmezbqg5i3wqspas2xu7n75ageyvsbh7ay62p7krta)
