    Philip Henslowe: It's a comedy!

    Hugh Fennyman: Cut off his nose.

    Philip Henslowe: It's a new comedy by William Shakespeare!

    Hugh Fennyman: And his ears.

    Philip Henslowe: And a share! We will be partners, Mr. Fennyman.

    [Lambert lifts Henslowe's feet off the coals]

    Philip Henslowe: It's a crowd tickler. Mistaken identities. Shipwreck. Pirate King. A bit with a dog and love triumphant!

    Lambert: I think I've seen it. I didn't like it.

    Philip Henslowe: But, this time it's by Shakespeare!

    Hugh Fennyman: What's it called?

    Philip Henslowe: Romeo and Ethel the Pirates Daughter.

    Hugh Fennyman: Good title.
