Stealing Shakespeare

FARCE. Finalist, Writer’s Digest Annual Writing Contest 2005. Will, a regular Casanova-type, steals Shakespeare’s sonnets and recites them as his own in order to woo unwitting coeds. All seems to be going well for Will until he decides to steal James Joyce’s novel, Ulysses, and turn it in as his master’s thesis since “It’s like the middle part of the Bible, no one ever reads it, but everyone agrees it’s pretty damn good.” But to Will’s dismay, he receives a “C.” Infuriated, Will seeks out his English professor and demands that she give him an “A”—after all, he reasons, it is the greatest novel of the 20th century. While Will’s professor is re-evaluating his thesis, the ghost of James Joyce begins haunting Will and is determined to avenge the crime by stealing Will’s girlfriend. Quirky characters abound in this fresh, rollicking farce.
