The Book of Will by Lauren Gunderson The Book of Will by Lauren Gunderson is a comedic and heartfelt play about the true story behind the creation of the First Folio, the first collected edition of Shakespeare's plays, published after his death. It follows Shakespeare's friends and fellow actors, John Heminges and Henry Condell, as they race to gather and preserve his works before they are lost forever, battling pirates, a fire, and their own mortality to save his legacy. The play is a celebration of friendship, storytelling, and the power of words, blending historical fact with fictionalized, imaginative moments.
