Host Michael Wood and Creator/Executive Producer Craig Pearce and Director/Executive Producer Shekhar Kapur break down the first two episodes of TNT's new series, Will. They discuss the historic conflict between Catholics and Protestants and why it's so critical to Will's story, and the importance of art and theater as the center of public discourse during Shakespeare's time. They also provide greater background detail on rock star playwright Christopher Marlowe, and his significance in the story and in Will's own life. And what does the music of The Clash and The Sex Pistols have to say about William Shakespeare?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.Learn more about your ad choices.
