Professor Liz Oakley-Brown returns to the pod to discuss the play Thersites (c.1537) attributed to Nicholas Udall and based on a dialogue by from Joannes Ravisius Textor - the play features a snail fight, and much more - part of our build up to our season of Henrician drama. This episode was recorded live on zoom on Tuesday 10th June at 7.15pm 2025. For more on the medieval manuscript side of things - over on BBC Sounds (where available) is Knight Fights Giant Snail. We reference Marie Axton's Three Tudor Classical Interludes which is the only modern edition of the play that we are aware of. We will be staging Thersites live on Sunday 22nd June 2025 at the Quay Theatre - tickets for the show are available here. But if that's not possible we have two exploring sessions online - a vanilla First Look, and a super charged Second Look. CW: We keep this fairly Universal, but towards the end we do discuss a death. Entertaining Henry is a co-production with The Quay Theatre and Beyond Shakespeare... Let us take you through a whistle-stop tour of the entertainment world from Henry’s reign: from his youthful days to his more fractious later life, we will share the history of his reign through the plays he and his subjects enjoyed. Play along with our Tudor Bingo Card, catch the pop-up merry tales, and enjoy entertainments fit for a king! Friday 20th June at 7.30pm Show 1 - Welcome to Henry’s Court! (1509 to 1520's) We welcome you to the Court of the newly-crowned King Henry! Let us introduce you to all the major players on and off stage, the rules of the court, and perform some of the earliest plays to survive from his reign – plays designed to curb Henry’s boisterous ways. https://quaysudbury.com/events/entertaining-henry-show-1-welcome-to-henrys-court/ Saturday 21st June at 7.30pm Show 2 - Reformation: More vs Cromwell (1520’s to 1530’s) As the Reformation hit England, different factions created dramas around the political rifts at court. The literary set that orbited Thomas More presented traditional debate on one side, whilst the rising star of Thomas Cromwell commissioned his players to write revelations on the other. https://quaysudbury.com/events/entertaining-henry-show-2-reformation-more-vs-cromwell/ Sunday 22nd June at 7.30pm Show 3 - Snail Fight! And Other Tudor Shenanigans (1530’s to 1547) We close our festival with some of the sillier plays from the end of Henry’s reign – featuring a sword fight with a snail, an ecclesiastical bust up in a church, and the epic conquest of the monster Tediousness! https://quaysudbury.com/events/entertaining-henry-show-3-snail-fight-and-other-tudor-shenanegans/ Season discount for each show - £14 for one show, £26 for two shows, £36 for all three Book Tickets Now for Show 1!
