Shakespeare and the Saint.  Dr.Williams, the 104th Archbishop of Canterbury, presents a "fantasia" on a meeting between young William Shakespeare and the Jesuit martyr, Edmund Campion.  Set against the backdrop of the English reformation in 1581, we encounter two men:  one who has found his calling, the other in search of his.
