Welcome to the 17th century stage, where Ned Kynaston's performance of Desdemona in Shakespeare's 'Othello' brings the house down nightly. Ned is the "most beautiful woman on the London stage". That is, until the King renounces the royal edict that only men can play women on stage. Enter Maria, Ned's seemingly loyal dresser, who becomes an instant star, leaving Ned to suppress his ardent feminine traits and make a man of himself.

Reasonably entertaining submitted by mandevil on July 15, 2021, 3:23pm Nice costumes, period piece. A bit unrealistic that a gay man switches sides, but hey, maybe is is bisexual
