saw hamnet. interesting concept but i would like everyone to know that i did not write "to be or not to be" while staring mournfully into a river. and also i'm hotter than paul mescal

"why doesn't christopher marlowe have a bluesky?" well he is currently in the hospital after getting into yet another bar fight. so it's best for all of us he's not on here

i enjoy a lot of contemporary playwrights' work but don't get why no one uses iambic pentameter anymore. try it sometime it'll really spice up your writing

always sucks to live through terrifying leadership changes in empires. shit got kind of crazy when queen elizabeth died in 1603

as a playwright i try not to be TOO petty, but it's really satisfying that everyone remembers me and no one remembers robert greene. never liked that guy

"ohhh nooo the theatre is dying" look, back in my day people said the same thing. everybody complained about how teens only wanted to go watch dogs rip apart a live bear instead of going to a play

hate when people bring up henry 6 part 1. that was my first play! i was so young! i didn't know what i was doing!!! i thought it would be "funny" and "cool" to have joan of arc summon literal otherworldly fiends that only show up in one scene!

glad that the dramatists guild exists. back in the day if a theatre wasn't paying me the money i was owed i'd have to sic christopher marlowe on them until they relented
