In simple yet all-telling black-and-white graphics, Freeman unfolds a humorous, lively, deeply human, and yet modern story of William Shakespeare being brought down from Heaven to help Hollywood out of a creative depression. Naturally, in a new environment, "Shakes" cannot produce hit material on call... and so his adventures begin -- with humorous and deep consequences, all told without words! Enjoy Don Freeman's humour and his wonderful and sense of life with all of humanity' highs and lows and in-betweens.
