'Shakespeare in Love' set for theatre adaptation

Playwright Tom Stoppard has teamed up with Disney bosses to adapt the Shakespeare in Love script into a theatrical blockbuster.

According to Variety, Stoppard is planning to convert his Oscar-winning script into a play.

The play writer had earlier dabbled with Shakespeare in his play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, the Daily Express reported. 

The play is expected to premiere in London, but no casting details or dates have been announced.
