- **Event Name**: The Book of Will by Lauren Gunderson
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 06 Mar, 2026 at 07:30 pm – Fri, 06 Mar, 2026 at 09:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Where there’s a Will there’s a way…

Without William Shakespeare, we wouldn’t have Romeo and Juliet, but without Henry Condell and John Heminges, we would have lost half of Shakespeare’s plays forever! Those who best knew Shakespeare fight to collect his plays into one volume in order to honor the legacy of the man they loved. Along the way, they’ll battle a shady publisher, drunken poet, shrinking resources, and their own mortality.

Amidst the noise and color of Elizabethan London, The Book of Will is an unforgettable true story of love, loss, and laughter, and sheds new light on a man you may think you know.
