このコンテンツについて

From the earliest drama in English, to the closing of the theatres in 1642, there was a hell of a lot of drama produced - and a lot of it wasn't by Shakespeare. Apart from a few noble exceptions these plays are often passed over, ignored or simply unknown. This podcast presents full audio productions of the plays, fragmentary and extant, that shaped the theatrical world that shaped our dramatic history.

  • 398: Lord Mayor's Show 1624 - Full Cast Audio Adaptation
    2025/10/10
    Welcome to this full audio adaptation of the 1624 Lord Mayor's Show - The Monuments of Honour by John Webster.

    This is a playful reconstruction of the show performed on the 29th October 1624. It was a massive civic event created by the city for it’s new Lord Mayor.
    This reconstruction was SUPPOSED to have been recorded live on the 400th anniversary of the show - but, alas, the production fell through at the last minute. Instead we recorded this piecemeal over the last six months around other shows.

    Full coverage of the 400 year old event, fed into our studio via the latest scrying glass link up...
    It features Robert Crighton, as radio Host John doing the live commentary. With Liza Graham as Hostess Joan on the street. Karim Kronfli plays the author of the pageant, John Webster, and the speeches of the shows are performed by Keith Hill and Emma Kemp. Our advisor was Professor Tracey Hill, our city chronologer.
    More from the civic world of London will come as we can pull it together.

    Our patrons received this episode a month early.

The whole event, as ever, was recorded, and we're releasing these over the next few months. This is episode 3, which covers the second half of the live performance of A Game at Chess itself - from midway into Act 3.
