Our Play is set in the Elizabethan period, the time of Drake, Frobisher and Grenville. This play follows the account of Richard who is a bitter old man at start of our play. Unfortunately, he has been reduced to poverty, forced by circumstances to return to his family, penniless and definitely resenting it. There he is induced to tell his story and what a story, he was a young man at the time of the Armada and served with Drake. After many adventures, in which he amasses a small fortune only to have it stolen by his so-called friend. He comes under the command of Sir Richard Grenville who is as mad as a March hare. Richard is then involved in the great sea fight off the Azores. After that debacle, they managed to get home where a grateful Queen did not even pay them their wages. However, our bitter and twisted old Richard is due for a surprise from the Spanish, but, will it change Richard?
