Exploring: Lucidus and Dubius (Fragments)
Episode 147, Apr 18, 2020, 07:57 AM
A first read and discussion of the dialogue Lucidus and Dubius.
From the Winchester Dialogues this is a read through and discussion of Lucidus and Dubius, written sometime in the midst of the 15th century. There's some question as to whether this is actually a performed play, but we take it on principle that if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck - it's a firking duck. Though there is no plot exactly, there is a relationship between the characters that develops and we had a lot more fun with this than expected. The read through is with Beyond Shakespeare Irregular Alan Scott and host Robert Crighton.
