Baltimore Playwrights Festival at Chesapeake Center presents For the Return of Albion, by Mike Field, directed by Noel Schively.
He matched wits with Shakespeare, fought in Flanders, was hauled into
court for refusing to attend church and even killed a fellow actor in
a duel. Ben Jonson: bricklayer, mercenary, pedant, poet and one-time
favorite of King James I, has made an enemy of the Duke of Buckingham
and his latest work creates an international controversy. In public
life, where art and politics collide, can a man armed only with a
goose quill survive?
