In Anne Hathaway's cottage at Stratford, the heroines of Shakespeare, Lady Macbeth, Ophelia, Portia, Cleopatra, and more, gather as a garden club, in a whimsical little fantasy play.

Mabel M. Moran's 1919 fantasy is a genial amateur play for a women's garden club. Charming, literary, of its era. Read it for a delightful period entertainment, Shakespeare's great women brought together for a club meeting at Stratford, meant to be acted out with wit and affection by the players.
