In Verona, Italy, something tragic has happened to the town that everyone knows and loves. A storm, which came from out of nowhere, struck the town and caused a lot of damage to the area. But the one place that everyone visits frequently is a coffee shop and bookstore entitled Shakespeare & Company had the worst damage, not to the coffee shop but to the bookstore. The books have been scattered all over the place, stories lying on top of each other but what people doesn't know is what the storm actually did.
The storm made most of Shakespeare's characters come to life and now, they are running amok in the city of Verona, where the Midsummers Night's Dream Festival is a day away. But the new residents of Verona don't know that their stories are intertwined. The city is known for having many people from all over the world visit and explore the romance or romantic stylings of Shakespeare. Some people just visit Shakespeare & Company to find a really good book to read. But now, those stories have come to life but with a slight and significant twist.
The characters such as Romeo, Juliet, Macbeth, Hamlet and many others are in the modern world and have been for a few months now. Love is lost, gained and a new world is explored but all characters meet or either work at Shakespeare & Company, where they feel a slight connection to the building. With new and returning faces, things are bound to be shaken up. Will the characters follow the script or stray away from the path? All the world may be a stage, but this time maybe, just maybe, the players can choose their own ending.
