When Christopher Marlowe died in 1593, his passionate, daring, and sometimes outrageous work had revolutionized the world of English drama. In celebration of TFANA's production of Tamburlaine, Parts One and Two, directed by Michael Boyd, we look at the ways Marlowe and Shakespeare inspired, competed with and outdid each other.

Yale Professor and General Editor of the Arden Shakespeare David Scott Kastan will provide commentary, as Tamburlaine's star, John Douglas Thompson and fellow cast members perform scenes and speeches
