our hero to slide from Italy via Sydney to Poland and back

the same technique liberates an entire family from their boxy
existence to a romp through the streets that lands them,
dancing in a live action sequence. In between these two,
‘Rubberman Accepts the Nobel Prize’ integrates digital media

Much Ado About Something
For over 200 years, there have been doubts as to whether
Shakespeare actually wrote the works attributed to him. One
of the rival Elizabethan playwrights considered to be the best
qualified to be the true author, has never been seriously
considered because he died in a knife fight at the age of 29.
This is Christopher Marlowe. But what if he did not die? What
if he escaped to live in exile in Italy and continued his career
as a writer and spy? It is a possibility too upsetting for many
Shakespeare scholars to consider.

his own life, his scandalous marriage to a
