Nat Field can forget all his sorrows and problems when he's on the stage. He loves to act, to submerge his own personality into one of Shakespeare's characters. He's one of 40 boys, aged 11 to 18, lucky and talented enough to be selected for The Company of Boys. The Company will go to London to put on "Midsummer Night's Dream" and "Julius Caesar." Nat is thrilled, even though the company's director is tyrannical and extremely strange. Then Nat falls sick, and when he wakes from his fever he's somewhere else -- it's London, all right, but the London of 1599, and the play he's to act in is directed by William Shakespeare himself.Cooper, Susan is the author of 'King of Shadows' with ISBN 9780689851988 and ISBN 0689851987.
