[School of Movies 2026] This was a commissioned show for Sarah Montgomery, though it is a film we have promised to cover for years and needed the right time. Turns out sandwiching it between Shakespeare and the Rocky Saga is appropriately ideal. It was released the same year as The Empire Strikes Back and watching any one minute of it will convey to newcomers why this campy space opera could not possibly compete for the attention of an audience craving Star Wars. However, it still did well enough, especially in the UK where the many fans of Queen celebrated this, the first ever sci-fi blockbuster film underscored with rock music. It has subsequently gained a cult following and a revival of interest when forgotten star Sam J. Jones turned up as a parody of himself in Seth McFarlane's two Ted films. His life story is in fact just as compelling as the tale of a simple quarterback opposing the cruel emperor of the universe; Ming (the Merciless)! This week's After School Club: Hamnet Next week: Rocky & Rocky II

What do the element palladium, William Shakespeare, and this episode have in common? Palladium is the 46th element on the periodic table. Shakespeare was rumored to have secretly written the King James Bible at the age of 46. In Psalm 46, the 46th word from the beginning of the psalm is often claimed to be “shake,” while the 46th word from the end is “spear.” And this episode is the 46th time I've answered your questions.

Director of Programming and Performance at the Folger Shakespeare Library, and Artistic Director of Folger Theatre, KAREN ANN DANIELS joins host Nathan Winkelstein for a deeply personal conversation about William Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing. They delve into the play's iconic “Kill Claudio” speech in Act 4, Scene 1, Daniels' own “gateway drug” to Shakespeare, and her enduring connection to his work. Daniels and Winkelstein explore Shakespeare's leading women, the ways they navigate — and push against — their societal roles, and the complicated realities of being a woman in the world. They discuss the friendship between Beatrice and Hero, the pressures of social status and relationships, and Daniels' playful approach to Shakespeare. Along the way, they consider how theater can expand our sense of what is possible—and why Daniels saw so much possibility in Beatrice.
This week, we take a break from Greece for our monthly Shakespeare and turn to Much Ado About Nothing, a play I found completely charming.After a quick trip through the plot, I compare Much Ado with last month's As You Like It: the different ways Shakespeare moves the action along, the surprising darkness lurking inside his comedies, and the very different themes he manages to explore while still making us laugh. We'll also look at one unexpectedly moving speech about grief that stopped me in my tracks.Finally, I talk about Kenneth Branagh's gorgeous 1993 film adaptation, featuring Emma Thompson, Denzel Washington, a very young Kate Beckinsale—and, fresh off his iconic Point Break role, Keanu Reeves!If Shakespeare makes you nervous, this funny, accessible play might be a very good place to start. And if you're tired of the comedy, come back next week for everyone's favorite Shakespeare for Halloween: Macbeth!BOOKS IN THIS EPISODEFolgers Library Editions of As You Like It, Much Ado About Nothing, Henry V, Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth.CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes (Amazon affiliate links): https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ Like what you heard?

In the decades that followed Shakepseare's death in 1616, England saw the arrival of events known as witch panics of Civil War–era Britain. It's easy to think that these witch panics and the heightened fear about witches was something that's post-Shakespeare, but the reality is that the the legal, religious, and cultural foundations were already being laid during Shakespeare's lifetime through developments such as the 1604 Witchcraft Act, King James I's ideas about demonic conspiracy, and growing fears surrounding prophecy, spirits, healing, and the Devil. Our guest today is Marion Gibson, an expert on witches and witchcraft in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and the author of Witchland her latest book that explores the witch panics of Civil War–era Britain, revealing how war, religious extremism, local conflict, and earlier beliefs about witchcraft combined to turn suspicion into persecution. For today's episode, we will explore both the terrible events that followed Shakespeare's lifetime and the earlier beliefs, laws, and conflicts that set the stage for their arrival. From witchfinders and eyewitness testimony to neighborhood quarrels and sudden reversals of reputation, Marion will help us understand how the foundations of England's later witch panics were being built while Shakespeare was still alive—and how that history can deepen our understanding of the witches and accusations we encounter in his plays
Don Yaeger has spent 30 years studying what makes stories stick — and he's put it all into his new book, The Business of Storytelling: Inspire Action, Build Trust, and Drive Results Through Story. In this conversation, Don breaks down why "the story is the strategy," the neuroscience behind why we fall for a good story (looking at you, Steve Jobs), why PowerPoint slides kill more presentations than they save, and the exact "x-ray" method he uses to reverse-engineer his own talks.Don is a 13-time New York Times bestselling author, longtime journalist, and one of the most sought-after storytelling coaches in the world — he's worked with Simon Sinek, Forbes, and NVIDIA's senior leadership, among others.

'He [Ted Hughes] writes about the Humber as this mythical creature in a way, that consumes all of the outpouring of the people of Hull.'Dr Anna Stevenson is a Trustee of the Philip Larkin Society- she also works at the Brynmor Jones Library and was born and grew up in Holderness, so she has a very special affinity with Philip Larkin as well as Ted Hughes.

Poems discussed:Larkin- Here,Show Saturday, High Windows, A Bridge for the LivingHughes- Mayday in Holderness, SongSylvia Plath- The Bee MeetingWe also mention TS Eliot, Shakespeare and John Betjeman along the way.

Most Americans know Hobby Lobby as a craft store. Investigative journalist Michael Blanding says the bigger story is how the Green family has used the fortune behind the company to advance its understanding of the Bible in American law, culture, education, and politics.Blanding joins Faithful Politics to discuss his new book, The Gospel According to Hobby Lobby. We trace the family's rise from an Oklahoma craft business to the 2014 Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Supreme Court case, which held that closely held corporations could receive protections under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.We also examine the Museum of the Bible, the Green family's controversial acquisition of antiquities, relationships with conservative Christian organizations, Dominionism, Christian nationalism, and Blanding's reporting on the museum as a gathering place for religious and political networks in Washington.The conversation asks a larger question running through Blanding's book: what happens when sincerely held religious convictions are backed by billions of dollars and an effort to shape a pluralistic democracy?BOOKBook: The Gospel According to Hobby Lobby: Inside a Billionaire Family's Quest to Craft a Christian NationBookshop.org: https://bookshop.org/a/112456/9781541703940GUEST BIOMichael Blanding is an investigative journalist and author whose work has appeared in The New York Times, WIRED, Smithsonian, Slate, The Nation, and other publications. He is the author of The Map Thief, In Shakespeare's Shadow, and The Gospel According to Hobby Lobby, which examines the Green family's religious, cultural, and political influence. Blanding is a former senior writing fellow at Harvard Kennedy School's Carr-Ryan Center for Human Rights and a former senior fellow at the Schuster Institute for Investigative Journalism.
Julius CaesarWilliam Shakespeare (1564 - 1616)William Shakespeare's The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, based on true events, concerns the conspiracy against Julius Caesar, his assassination in 44 BC, and its immediate aftermath. Probably written in 1599 and among the first of Shakespeare's plays to be performed at the Globe Theater, Julius Caesar is one of his best-known dramas and has received innumerable performances throughout the centuries.

Go to classictalesaudiobooks.com today and choose the best way to support the show. Thank you so much. Today's episode features an author I've wanted to do since I started this show nearly 20 years ago. I just couldn't figure out how to work Aesop into the lineup. There are so many different translations and editions, I simply never found the right one. Then, as I was researching Somerset Maugham, I ran across a reference to the title of one of his books, Cakes and Ale. Maugham's Cakes and Ale is a novel exposing the wrongs of societal snobbery. Maugham lifted his title from Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, it seems. Maugham's novel may have its title inspired from Joseph Jacob's edition of Aesop's Fables, as the moral of the story of the Town Mouse and the Country Mouse is: Better Beans and Bacon in peace than Cakes and Ale in fear. Something about that just struck a chord with me. I found the Jacob edition of the fables, and they are fantastic, as you will soon hear. I had toyed around many times with adding one or two to the beginning and end of a show, but I didn't think that would give them the attention due to them. Which brings us to today's episode, where we dive in and hear 22 of Aesop's Fables, one after another. As you listen, you might want to check in on how you're feeling. If you're like me, at first I was a little resistive – these feel like kids stories at first. Peter Pan advice, right? Keep listening. See how you feel by the end of the episode.

Did Shakespeare shape the way we remember England's Plantagenet kings more than history itself? How much of his plays Richard II and Richard III are fact, fiction, or Tudor propaganda?Professor Emma Smith joins Matt Lewis to separate the history from drama, and discover how Shakespeare balanced historical truth, theatrical brilliance and the political realities of writing under Elizabeth I, to create plays that still shape our understanding of medieval English history today.MORE:The Bishop who Took Down Richard IIListen on AppleListen on SpotifyRichard IIIListen on AppleListen on SpotifyGone Medieval is presented by Matt Lewis.

Since 597, students have hauled books among the green lawns and Gothic stone buildings of the world's oldest boarding school: The King's School in Canterbury, England. Founded by St. Augustine — patron saint of theologians, printers, and brewers (!) — it's educated hundreds of thousands of boys over the past 1400 years, including Shakespeare's rival Christopher Marlowe and Legolas himself, actor Orlando Bloom. Boarding schools are practically designed for drama in real life and on the page. They're populated by kids of all ages, and the closed environment is ripe for cliques, bullying, and friendships tighter than family. The built-in power dynamics — students vs. teachers, day schoolers vs. boarders, scholarship kids vs. legacies — are the ideal kindling for entertaining and affecting conflict. In this episode, we take a romp through the history of boarding school literature, enjoy a virtual tour of the posh school for the world's elitest students, and celebrate a thirteen-year-old boy who biked sixty miles to make it to the first day of term in 1926. Then we recommend a whole bunch of great books that took us back to the school on the page, including: The Secret Place by Tana French Prep by Curtis Sittenfeld Say Her Name by Juno Dawson The Incandescent by Emily Tesh Villette by Charlotte Brontë For more on the books we recommend, plus the other cool stuff we talk about, visit show notes.

Before we begin Act Two or land on the shores of Cyprus, here is a bonus episode talking about how Shakespeare may (and may not) have imagined the island.
A special edition of Front Row from the BBC's poetry and performance festival - Contains Strong LanguageSince self-publishing a poetry pamphlet in 2020, Donna Ashworth has gone on to become the UK's bestselling living poet of the decade. She talks about her new book, The Art of Being Easily Pleased: Words To Unlock A Wonderful life, and shares some of her new poems.The phenomenally successful musical, Operation Mincemeat, which looks at a WW2 deception operation, began life as a 15 minute performance at The Lowry as part of the art centre's artist development programme. Natasha Hodgson and David Cumming, two of the original members of the team that created the show, discuss one of the musical's best loved songs, Dear Bill, and there'll be a special performance of it.Anthony Almeida is directing a new production of Othello, set in 1980s Britain which draws parallels between the political and military turmoil of that time with those of Shakespeare's 16th century setting in Venice and Cyprus. He talks about the play's language of leadership in challenging times.The TS Eliot Prize-winning poet Joelle Taylor set her collection, Maryville, in a butch bar to explore the lives of four butch lesbians and the underground landscape of queer culture. She discusses the new performance version of these poems that she'll be presenting at the Contains Strong Language festival. Presenter - Samira Ahmed Producer - Ekene Akalawu
1) Desconcertado: Me voló la cabeza cuando leí esta frase de Shakespeare, “Dices amar la lluvia, pero abres el paraguas cuando llueve; dices amar el sol, pero buscas sombra cuando brilla; dices amar el viento, pero cierras la ventana cuando sopla. Por eso, tengo miedo cuando me dices que me quieres”. Es una de las frases que cuantas más vueltas le das más sentido tiene, porque mucha gente dice amar algo hasta que amar ese algo implica incomodidad, hasta que requiere paciencia, requiere presencia, requiere elegir a alguien, incluso en sus peores momentos. Es muy fácil amar lo bonito de una persona, pero lo difícil es amar lo humano: las inseguridades, los días malos, las partes rotas de esas personas. Porque amar de verdad no es solo admirar la luz de alguien, sino que también es aprender a quedarse cuando aparecen sus sombras. Por eso, no te desconciertes con la otra parte que ves de la persona, como le pasó a Herodes. Acepta el todo de esa persona si verdaderamente la quieres y la valoras.2) Decían: La sociedad siempre hablará y opinará de nosotros. Séneca decía: “Los humanos somos las criaturas más crueles de todas, porque pueden sonreír mientras te destruyen”. Por eso, hablando de lo que la gente dice, recuerda que no siempre podrás evitar que alguien te perjudique, pero sí podés evitar que eso te transforme en quien no querés ser o en quien no eres. Que lo que te hicieron no decida en quien te conviertes.3) Decapitar: Aceptar no significa que estoy negando lo que estoy viviendo. Yo puedo decirte: “Vení a misa para que se te vaya el dolor que estás sintiendo”, y vos me podrás decir: “Yo recibo la gracia, Padre, pero el dolor sigue estando”, y eso no es falta de fe tuya ni mía. Ni que la oración falló, porque somos Tripartitos: cuerpo, alma y espíritu, y el alma duele y el dolor no se puede negar. Insisto en decirte: “Aceptar las cosas no es negar las cosas”. Cuando aceptamos no significa que reprimimos los sentimientos, no es que ahí tengo que hacer millones de oraciones y repetir versículos bíblicos, no fingimos que todo está bien y está bien que no todo esté bien. En mis años de cura vi gente que actúa como que no está pasando lo que le está pasando y creen que eso es actuar en fe. Eso es no querer ver la realidad. A esos los llamo cristianos “avestruces”. El avestruz pone la cabeza en tierra y cree que nadie lo está viendo. Trabaja por ser un cristiano que acepta y pasa lo que tiene que pasar. Algo bueno está por venir.
Welcome to Sew & So…we're excited to introduce you to someone whose work brings together so many of the things we talk about here on Sew & So—sewing, creativity, craftsmanship, and the incredible power of clothing to transform the way we see a person.Amanda Lifvendahl is the Costume Shop Supervisor and Lead Designer at Interlochen Center for the Arts, the internationally renowned arts education community in northern Michigan. And when you hear Amanda talk about costumes, you quickly realize that what she does is about so much more than making beautiful clothes.Amanda grew up in the Chicago area in a very creative family. Her parents were involved in community theater, so theater was part of her life from an early age. In high school, she started working with wardrobes and learning to sew—and somewhere along the way, she caught what she calls the “costume bug.”But her path to costume design wasn't exactly a straight line. Amanda was actually studying to become a nurse when an acting class changed everything. She found herself costuming some of the scenes she was acting in, and her instructor suggested she take a closer look at costume design.That little nudge eventually led her to Illinois State University, a 16-year adventure at Broadway Costumes in Chicago, and then, in 2018, to Interlochen Center for the Arts.Today, Amanda designs costumes for theater and dance, works with productions ranging from Shakespeare to Broadway-style musicals and ballet, and mentors young artists who are discovering their own creative voices.Hear about Amanda's philosophy about what a costume really does. She sees it as the outer layer of a character—something that can tell us who that person is before they ever speak a word.We're going to talk about all of that …and we're also going to talk about the chickens! Because when Amanda and her husband moved to Interlochen, they were gifted 20 chickens. Today they have 24 chickens, 12 goldfish and a Cock-a-Poo named Delilah!(4:03) How did Amanda learn to sew and who were her influencers?(4:47) She grew up in a very artistic, creative and theatrical family.

She tells us about that time in her life.(15:59) She said the “loosened up” Painting scenery at ISU. What does this mean?(18:24) Amanda spent 16 years working at Broadway Costumes Chicago. She shares this adventure with us.(21:40) Amanda shares a few stories with us about her time in Chicago at Broadway Costumes.(24:31) In 2018 Amanda got her job at Interlochen…she tells us how this happened…and why she cried!(26:17) She tells about Interlochen Center For the Arts; it's history and how they're preparing to celebrate their 100th anniversary. And how about her costume shop?(28:13) Learn about the campus at Interlochen…”Hogwarts for the Arts”!(30:58) How many costumes are in the costume shop?(32:20) How about memorable students and productions?(35:57) Learn Amanda's philosophy about costuming and how the process begins for her.(39:24) Amanda's costumes are trult the first impression of a character…she tells us more!(40:39) Amanda talks about her scoliosis and spinal fusion and how it influences her costume designs.(42:38) Does she have to modify how she works today because of her physical challenges?(44:58) What's next for her and what's her dream?(45:55) You can find Amanda on Instagram @lifvenator Be sure to subscribe to, review and rate this podcast on your favorite platform…and visit our website sewandsopodcast.com for more information about today's and all of our Guests.

Did Shakespeare teach us about England's greatest kings, or fabricate its greatest historical myths?

How do you write a “complete” life of Shakespeare when very little complete information about his life exists? Four centuries after Shakespeare's death, the legends that have grown up around him have taken on a cultural significance of their own. As Inaugural Folger Chair in Shakespeare Studies Paul Menzer puts it, “the verifiable facts of his life would fit on the back of a postcard. But the stories that we have told about them would fill a dozen phone books.” Menzer's book, The Complete Life of William Shakespeare, dives into the life story of one of history's most editorialized yet most enigmatic figures, navigating the space between fact and fancy. Did Shakespeare embark on a lone hero's journey, or was his move to London more of a family road trip? Could such a great poet have also been a shrewd businessman? And why aren't there more Shakespeares out there? In this episode, Menzer lays out the known facts of the Bard's biography and posits how we might connect the dots on what's missing—while throwing some “wobbles into the orbit” of well-trenched folk wisdom.

In this episode of The Truth In This Art, the guest is Renea S. Brown!About Renea S. Brown: Lexington, Kentucky-born multi-award-winning classical actress and Shakespearean specialist based in the DMV. A storyteller since childhood, Renea began her theatrical journey at nine years old, training at the School of the Creative and Performing Arts before building a career that spans the region's leading stages — from Folger Theater to Roundhouse Theater to Shakespeare Theater Company. She has earned three Helen Hayes Awards, co-founded the Black-led Eminent Theatre Company, and has appeared on screen in Godfather of Harlem and Law & Order.In our conversation, Renea breaks down Folger Theater's production of Measure for Measure — a Shakespeare play set in Vienna where a Duke quietly watches from the shadows as his appointed deputy, Angelo, abuses his power in the name of law and order. She walks through the play's central characters, the moral complexity at the heart of the story, and why themes of power, corruption, justice, and the silencing of women land just as hard today as they did centuries ago.She gets into what it means to perform this particular story within walking distance of Capitol Hill, why the Folger is the ideal space for it, and why live performance — people telling stories to people in real time — still matters in a world dominated by screens.Be sure to follow Renea S. Brown on Instagram and TikTok at @therealdarkLady and on Instagram at @ImminentTheatreCompany.
