# Arden of Feversham

By William Shakespeare.

"Arden of Feversham by William Shakespeare and Rev. Ronald Bayne" is an Elizabethan play written in 1592. It dramatizes the real-life murder of Thomas Arden by his wife Alice and her lover Mosby in 1551. This domestic tragedy follows their conspiracy to kill Arden, employing bungling assassins Black Will and Shakebag in repeated failed attempts. The play depicts a crime of passion that transcends social class, leading to a brutal conclusion and the conspirators' inevitable discovery and punishment.
