Shakespeare's Land of the Dead: A True Account of the Zombie Plague of 1599

London, 1599, Shakespeare's Henry V opens the Globe Playhouse, but while the actors strut and fret, an excess of bile plagues the populace outside. After the opening of his newest play, the company's costumer is bitten by an afflicted madman, and the Queen and her men arrive seeking safety, as life in the playhouse takes a turn for the worse. As the affliction spreads throughout London, the Globe is placed in quarantine and the survivors within must fight for their lives. Can they escape? Is there a cure? Is artistic integrity ever worth dying for?
