259: Killing Arden: Adapting Arden of Faversham, part 1

Beyond Shakespeare

We're beginning a new series of explorations on the podcast, a deep dive into the play Arden of Faversham by the Unknown. Following our prelude looking at the play's source material from Holinshed's Chronicles of England, Scotland and Ireland, we dive into the first scene of the play, asking the question of how to adapt the text for an audio adaptation.
There's a First Look Exploring session of the play available on our YouTube channel, with more to come later in the year - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLflmEwgdfKoKNs8EPvSfIj1dqslTdwZdi
Our patrons received this episode in November 2022, over five months earlier than this release.
