Shakespeare and Pals: Recapping the Bard
Arts:Books
We really have been trying to make this podcast more family friendly...
Here we have an edgy take on Romeo and Juliet. Romeo and Juliet’s problem was there families were too far apart. Giovanni and Annabella’s families are too close. They’re the same family. They’re brother and sister.
But that’s not all, we’ve also got street fights, dumb nephews, evil Spaniards, and scene-stealing banditti.
Is this Renaissance tragedy more than an exercise in edginess? Join us as we discuss “‘Tis Pity She’s a Sex-Positive Lady”!
