Symington Smythe<br> An ostler and aspiring thespian. <p>Will Shakespeare<br> A fledgling dramatist.</p> <p>Two travelers meet at a roadside inn and decide to cast their lots together for fame and fortune in the cutthroat world of the London theatre in Elizabethan England...but neither was prepared for their offstage encounter with <i>A Mystery of Errors</i>. When a backer's daughter is double-crossed by a would-be suitor, the reluctant bride turns to the ostler and the playwright for help.
