from Will: What Is He Good For? · host Classics on the Rocks

On February 2nd in 1585, Shakespeare signs a baptismal certificate for his twin children Judith and Hamnet.  This is the last record we have of what he is doing for the next seven years and beginning what scholars call his “lost years”  There are many, many theories of what he was doing during this time. In this episode, we explore the story of William Knell and the Queen’s Men, and how it may shed some light on the unexpected journey the young man from Stratford would ultimately embark on.
