PLEASE LET THIS BE REAL

@thefingerfuckingfemalefury @cblgblog @chiribomb

Part of me thinks “Surely this isn’t true” but another part of me is like “This is not the weirdest thing I’ve ever heard”

There’s part of me that can’t possibly believe this is real, bit I’ve read parts of the Old Bailey records, and this is … not exactly normal, but not that far from it. People stole lots of shit, and drunk theater people are a very odd lot.

It sounds like a Leverage/Drunk History mashup.

“You guys, lesh…let’s go steal the Globe. We’re gonna steal the Globe Theatre.”

@copperbadge, thoughts?

@tzikeh says the theft itself is well known, we just now have evidence Shakespeare participate in it, to which I say, a bounty of wealth for the first person who writes a Shakespearean heist novel.
