Now is the podcast of our discontent.....well hopefully not! This week we're talking about Teenage Dick (not a sentence to be taken out of context :P) - the play that takes the themes and narrative of Shakespeare's Richard III and puts it in an even more challenging setting than the battlefields of England....an American high school. This play is a champion of representation on stage and we loved discussing that in this episode. Also you can play along as Lexie gives Meg a quiz on teen film adaptations of Shakespeare works!
PS come back Slow Sally the laptop, all is forgiven; you'll see what we mean....

Co Hosted by Lexie Ward and Meg Robinson.
Music By Connor Barton (Sethera Sound Design)
