And so ends our first play! This week we looked at the curious Act V of King John and discussed the ‘student becoming the master’ phenomena with both the Bastard and Lewis, the surreal and feverish imagery of John in the last scene and Shakespeare’s fondness for shipwrecks as plot devices (this play has 4 ship wrecks!).
The episode features Bronwyn Barnwell, Olivia Rose Barresi, Meg Hachmann, Julia Larsen, & Rafe Terrizzi facilitated by Ariana Karp. Unfortunately Patrick Harvey & Sam Gibbs were unable to join us for this episode, but don’t worry, they’ll be in the final play recording!
We will be releasing the full radio play of King John with music and sound effects this week! Stayed tuned for more info!
