A great fan of Shakespeare's plays is young, wealthy Viola who is about to be married to Lord Wessex, but constantly dreams to be an actress. Women were not allowed to act on stage at that time (female roles were played by men, too), but dressed up as a boy, Viola successfully auditions for the part of Romeo. Soon she and William are caught in a forbidden romance that provides rich inspiration for his play.
