Diddly-diddly-dee - Two Maidens!

It's the second of three Dialogues by John Fisher - recorded in a secret London location with Liza Graham and Robert Crighton. As ever with these printed dialogues, there is the usual tension between the question as to whether they are dramatically interesting, or are tipped towards functioned as Socratic dialogue for reading alone. These were printed in 1558, at the end of the reign of one Queen (Mary), and the beginning of another (Elizabeth).
The title is damaged by it's known as A Dialogue of Maidens, as in between two Maidens, Eda and Agna. We have recorded a full cast audio version, which is in editing hell. One day, it will appear!
