(S1E4) Macarbe short. Nothing quite so awkward as, “meeting the family.” In Brian's case, it's his latest conquest's granny, and all he has to do is pass the time with her, while Hetty gets ready for the halloween party. Twenty minutes or so before he can make his move. But in this household, they have their own way of celebrating. YARN OVER Written by Graham David Richards Cast: Hetty – SALLY SWIFT Brian – SCOTT WILKINS Jen – ANGELIQUE LAZARUS Clair – SALLY SWIFT Granny Bishop – WENDY LAP Music especially composed and performed by Sophie Rose, with additional sound design by Tapdancer and Deborah Stencel. The song, “Spell of the Night Sun” is by Rob Southworth, and is used by kind permission. With thanks to Matthew Exell, Patricia Dawn Richards, Julia Eve, Fiona Thraille, Velma the cat, and Andrew Clark. Cover art by Martin Baines Contains derogatory language. Running Time: 22mins approx. Things in Dark Corners is produced and published by Audible Visions, with Channel House Entertainment. Copyright 2024.
It's another exciting episode of Epic Epilogues, this time we're looking at Cambyses by Thomas Preston. We've done a fair amount on this one, with first and second look runs on the YouTube, and, of course this.

This is the quick look at the epilogue to The Coxcomb by John Fletcher and Francis Beaumont - originally written around 1608-12, but revised later. Whether this epilogue is from the team is unknown, this might be a later addition, as epilogues often are. The epilogue is performed (a few times) by Fiona Thraille - a British voice actor, narrator and audio producer who has worked in voiceover, podcasts, and who has narrated and produced over a dozen audiobooks through Audible.

Another Epic Epilogue, this time a short but sweet note from The Noble Gentlemen by John Fletcher and… someone. Part of what we might call the messy Beaumont and Fletcher extended collaborative universe. Fletcher worked with a lot of people, but in this case it's possible that he died leaving the text unfinished and someone else worked from then on. The play was printed in 1647, and probably was new when licenced for performance in 1626 – but there is some disagreement on this point. But this epilogue is probably written for the revival of the play in 1641, putting it right at the end of our timeline. Performed by Fiona Thraille.

This is a discussion with Professor Marion Wynne-Davies about the collection of plays and documents, published in 1996, Renaissance Drama by Women, which was co-edited with S.P. Cerasano. Whilst it was published a fair while ago, it was this collection that began our work on these plays, and we're probably not alone. This episode features clips from our audio adaptations of the plays in question, all of which can be heard in full on our Dramatic Women playlist. The host was Robert Crighton, and additional voices include Simon Nader as Caesar in The Tragedy of Antony, Fiona Thraille from Elizabeth I's translation, and Pamela Flanagan as Cleopatra in The Tragedy of Antony translated by Mary Sidney, as well as Salome in The Tragedy of Mariam by Elizabeth Cary.

Second of a three part series looking at The Shrewsbury Fragments - this is fragment number two, a Marys play.

A chat about The World and the Child or, Mundus et Infans, with Professor Greg Walker - who you will remember many a chat about John Heywood on the pod. We're turning the clock back a little bit for a play that survives in print from 1522, but precise dating of production is less clear. Spoilers on the play are already available, and the full cast audio to follow soon. This episode features clips from the upcoming production, featuring performances by Sarah Golding as the World, Rob Myson as Conscience, Hugh Weller-Poley as Folly and Fiona Thraille as Perseverance. A playlist of all the audio we have on The World and the Child can be heard here.

The Tragedy of Panthea possibly by Richard Farrant. So, this is a short fragment from The Tragedy of Panthea. It was performed by a boy's company sometime between 1567 and 1580, and depending on the date by the Children of Winsor or the Children of the Chapel Royal. Richard Farrant is a reasonable shout as the author, as he produced within those limits.

We continue our Spoilers for The World and the Child, or Mundus et Infans by the Unknown. Dating around 1500, printed in 1522, it's the smallest cast show on the block - potentially stageable with two (we used five) actors. As a pre-plague bonus recording, we are locked into the takes we made four years ago - but it's come out quite well. This !Spoilers! episode unlocks the final movement of the play (I call them movements, because they're not quite perfectly delineated as scenes - plus I like to sound arty) which includes the two actor clash point - is it actually reasonable to stage this play with two actors? Kinda.

(S1E3) **CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE** It is an operation at the edge of human endeavour, of salvage, study, and demolition.

"This is Fiona Thraille, writer and producer of Perfect Retreat, which is part mystery, part ghost story, part celebration of the Arts and music. Set in the summer of 2021, Perfect Retreat is about a group of people who win a competition to spend two weeks on an artists' retreat on a remote island in the North Atlantic. But what does the plaque above the door: "Creativity is Life" mean for those who can no longer create? This is Episode 5, Create or Die, which is actually the penultimate episode, but it's the one that fits the timescale for this competition. There aren't actually many spoilers quite yet as it's building to the conclusion, and it pretty much stands alone, so it's safe to listen to! Thank you for listening." cw: Talk of death, pandemic times, ghosts, drinking, relationship breaks Transcript can be found at: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ebg60b6vcrnkhog/Perfect%20Retreat%20-%20Episode%205%20Create%20or%20Die.pdf?dl=0 https://dashingonions.buzzsprout.com/252678/12832862-perfect-retreat-episode-5-create-or-die

This week we continues our work on women's dramatic writing with the attributed translation of a speech from the chorus in Hercules Oetaeus, a play not by Seneca (but everyone thought it was) by Queen Elizabeth the First. It's a difficult speech in the original, and the translation is not easy to follow, but we had a go anyway. The speech is performed by Fiona Thraille, with an alternative contemporary translation by John Studley, a rough reading by Alan Scott taken from our exploring session available on YouTube.

It's time for our last fragment from the pen of George Puttenham, The Wooer. This is the third of three fragments which comprise the complete dramatic works of George Puttenham, (following Gynaeocratica and Lusty London).

“The thing that had to change most fundamentally [in The Grand Sophy] is that Sophy is simply untroubled…she always has the upper hand, she always has the answer and she's always outwitting everybody. For the film…if a character is completely unassailable, it becomes frustrating. You have to find the kryptonite, you have to find what would make her vulnerable, and what would make her unsure of herself. If she's being so bold and outrageous, what are the consequences?' – Olivia Hetreed on adapting The Grand Sophy into a film Welcome to our final episode in this season of Heyer Today, the podcast all about historical novelist, Georgette Heyer. Sara-Mae has now been working on this programme for years, over which time, the world has been reshaped by a pandemic, she's had a child and met a huge community of Heyer admirers and fans. It's been a tremendously rewarding process in which she's gotten to reread the books she's loved almost all her life and see them with fresh eyes, alongside our Heyer newbies. Since she began this project, looking for Heyer content that was thin on the ground, new podcasts have sprung up, academic essays and conferences exploring the world Heyer created, as well as TV shows adapting the work of similar authors. All of which has made us hopeful that at long last, Heyer will get the recognition she deserves from critics and movie makers. In this final episode, we'll visit Heyer on her deathbed, with her best friend and husband Ronald at her side, as the magnificent Sarah Golding and Karim Kronfli give voice to her final moments in a tremendously touching scene. *Trigger warning, this scene may be difficult to listen to if you've lost someone from lung-related ailments. On top of that, we chat to screenwriter Olivia Hetreed, coming full circle on our journey to discover what happened to her and her husband, producer Andy Paterson's film version of The Grand Sophy. We'll also speak to Peter Buckman again, as he tells us all about his adaptation of TGS, born out of frustration in the film world. Plus, Jennifer Kloester, Heyer's biographer, will discuss the controversial side of Heyer's oeuvre, exploring accusations of anti-Semitism which have led some to call for her to be ‘cancelled'. Finally, we have an Aussie book club who've never read her work giving us their verdict on The Grand Sophy. SO. MUCH. GOOD. STUFF. This episode was edited, researched, produced and hosted by Sara-Mae Tuson. Beth Keehn worked with Sara-Mae on production, writing and research. Mike Scott also helped with production, as well as a little acting here and there. Rowan Scott for being an adorable addition to the Fable Gazers family. Thanks to Cat Warren and Will Dell for their help across the series with production. Michael Mandalis edited and recorded Beth's bits throughout the season and he did a marvellous job. Thanks also to Geraldine Elliot, Talitha Gamaroff and everyone who supported us in creating this work. We could never have made this without the help of all the guests we've had on this season's episodes. You're all totally fabulous, even if you didn't become converts. Heyer's deathbed scene was enacted by the magnificent Sarah Golding as Heyer, and Karim Kronfli doing his usual fabulous job as Ronald. We'd like to thank our wonderful cast across the series: Helen Davidge as young Heyer, Beth Crane and Hedley Knights playing multiple roles, including Heyer's son, Richard (please check out their brilliant pod We Fix Space Junk, amongst many others), Fiona Thraille (playing Pat Wallace and others), Thomas and Holly Golding as young Boris and young Richard, John Grayson as Frere, Karen Heimdahl, my mother, Cathy Tuson as Sylvia and Mike Scott, again. You all helped to bring Heyer's world to life, and we're profoundly grateful to all of you. Look out for bonus episodes later in the year, we have plans to work with the International Heyer Society and Jen Kloester on some special short episodes. The music used in this episode is from Emma Gattril's luminous album, Chapter I, as well as Jerome Alexander's cinematic Message to Bears work. Original music was composed especially for the podcast, by Sara-Mae and Tom Chadd, and their work will shortly be available on Spotify and Bandcamp or on request for people who donate to our Paypal. Comment and take part in our discussions on social media, we're @fablegazers on Instagram and @fable_gazers on Twitter.

As a thriving empire faces war with ferocious barbarians, a mischievous scholar named Minerva hopes to bring law and civilization to a great realm populated by talking birds, giant rats, gregarious knights, elemental gods, and menacing malasanders. An unanticipated dispute among the knights gives Minerva an opportunity to uphold the doctrine of moral principles, but Minerva finds herself testing her loyalty to her aide-de-camp while helping others to learn what honor, empathy, and identity really mean.
