You may know Al Letson as a journalist—he's the host of the popular investigative podcast Reveal. Before that, he created and hosted the public radio show State of the Re:Union. But Letson is also an actor, writer, playwright, and poet. His play Julius X: A Re-envisioning of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare kicks off Folger Theatre's 2025-26 season. Julius X isn't an adaptation of Julius Caesar — it's a new play that borrows from Shakespeare's language, characters, and plot to tell a different story. In Letson's play, Julius X is a fictionalized version of Malcolm X. The play mixes lines from Shakespeare with Letson's original poetry and songs. It expands the roles of Shakespeare's female characters, as well as that of Cinna the poet. Letson discusses the origin story of Julius X - a hint: it involves an audition, his lifelong love for Malcolm X, and the lessons he learned as an artist from Bill Moyers' series, The Language of Life: A Festival of Poets. From the Shakespeare Unlimited podcast. Published September 9, 2025. © Folger Shakespeare Library. All rights reserved. This episode was produced by Matt Frassica. Garland Scott is the executive producer. It was edited by Gail Kern Paster. We had help with web production from Paola García Acuña. Leonor Fernandez edits our transcripts. Final mixing services are provided by Clean Cuts at Three Seas, Inc. Al Letson is the Peabody Award-winning host of Reveal. Born in New Jersey, he moved to Jacksonville, Florida, at age 11 and, as a teenager, began rapping and producing hip-hop records. By the early 1990s, he had fallen in love with the theater, becoming a local actor and playwright, and soon discovered slam poetry. In 2000, Letson placed third in the National Poetry Slam and performed on Russell Simmons' Def Poetry Jam, which led him to write and perform one-man shows. In Letson's travels around the country, he realized that the America he was seeing on the news was far different from the one he was experiencing up close. In 2007, he competed in the Public Radio Talent Quest, where he pitched a show called State of the Re:Union that reflected the conversations he was having throughout the US. The show ran for five seasons and won a Peabody Award in 2014. In 2015, Letson helped create and launch Reveal, the nation's first weekly investigative radio show, which has won two duPont Awards and three Peabody Awards and been a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize twice. He has also hosted the podcast Errthang; written and developed several TV shows with major networks, including AMC+'s Moonhaven and Apple TV+'s Monarch; and DC Comics recently released his series Mister Terrific: Year One.

This week, we explore the legacy of Shakespeare's wife, Anne Hathaway, through the only epitaph in the Shakespeare family plot that's written in Latin and engraved on brass. Our guest, Katherine Scheil, walks us through the historical significance of Anne's burial placement, the meaning behind the poetic language of her epitaph, and what these choices tell us about Anne's relationship with her daughters, with William Shakespeare, and with the 17th-century culture of commemoration.

Episode 185:For today's guest episode it's a warm welcome to the podcast for Christine and Jonathan Hainsworth, co-authors of the recently published book ‘The Shakespeare Ladies Club'.Their book explores the lives of four ladies who were crucial in ensuring the original work of Shakespeare was not forgotten in the 18th Century and beyond. In 1736, these three ladies of quality, two from the aristocracy and one a writer who ran a stationery shop, formed the ‘Shakespeare Ladies Club'. All three were so enraptured by the plays of William Shakespeare that they met to read and discuss his them and his genius. Not content with this, they used their power and influence to campaign for a statue of their literary idol to be placed in Westminster Abbey. They were successful in that endeavour, but their role in these achievements has never been properly recognised. Along with other scholars Christine and Johnathn's book is part of the process of putting that right. It is a very entertaining and informative read that I thoroughly enjoyed as I hope you will our conversation with just a taster of some of the details Christine and Jonathan have revealed.Christine and Jonathan Hainsworth live in Adelaide, South Australia and have a passion for historical investigation and challenging the 'conventional wisdom' regarding famous historical subjects.Christine spent several decades working for the Australian government in social services. Her work on a program to re-connect lone parents with training, education and employment opportunities gave her a unique insight into family and societal challenges.Jonathan was educated in Britain and Australia and has over thirty years of experience as a high school teacher of Modern and Ancient History, and English Literature. He is a graduate of The University of Adelaide and the University of South Australia.Link to Christine and Jonathan's website: https://hainsworthwardagius.comLink to The Shakespeare Ladies Club on Amberley Publishing: https://www.amberley-books.comLink to The Shakespeare Ladies Club on Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Shakespeare-Ladies-Club-Forgotten-Rescued/dp/1398127442/ref=sr_1_1?Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

In Sonnet 147, William Shakespeare brings together two themes that have agitated him before: firstly the at the time fairly commonplace notion of love – and, more to the point, desire – as a disease that weakens the mind to the point of an irrational madness and afflicts the body in a similarly stark fashion, and secondly the ways in which his mistress deviates from the ordinarily praised ideal of beauty. The sonnet therefore returns the series firmly and identifiably to the 'Dark Lady' and the effect she is having on our poet in an unequivocally physical manner, leaving behind the reflections on the soul of the previous sonnet and concerning itself once more with his lust for someone he knows – or at the very least declares – to be neither traditionally beautiful nor morally sound.

Richard III is an early history play probably written and performed around 1592-93. It is the culmination of Shakespeare's earlier three plays about Henry VI, and chronicles the bloody career of Richard, Duke of Gloucester. As the play opens, the Wars of the Roses are over, King Edward IV (Richard's brother) is on the throne, and all is ostensibly well. But Richard wants to be king - and he'll stop at nothing to realize his ambition. This is a dramatic reading.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

To be (in this movie) or not to be (in this movie)... that is the question Robin Williams must ask himself as he joins back up with Kenneth Branagh for a short and quick role in his 1996 epic cinematic adaptation of William Shakespeare's Hamlet.

As PMQs kick off today after the summer recess, Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner has admitted that she did not pay enough tax when buying her new flat and has referred herself for investigation. She said she received incorrect legal advice that led to her paying less stamp duty.

The Standard's Chief Political Correspondent Rachael Burford joins us with the latest. And in part two, The Standard's Theatre Critic Nick Curtis reviews Born with Teeth, a sizzling new chamber play from the Royal Shakespeare Company, which is currently showing at London's Wyndham Theatre, featuring Ncuti Gatwa and Edward Bluemal, as Elizabethan playwrights Kit Marlowe and William Shakespeare.

I complain about Harry Potter, James Bond, and the new movie where William Shakespeare somehow looks amazing for a guy in the late 1500's.  

Send us a textAfter earning an Ian Charleson Award nomination for her Hermia in the Bridge Theatre's A Midsummer Night's Dream, Isis Hainsworth has continued to take on some of Shakespeare's best loved roles and is now preparing to take on the role of Isabella in Measure For Measure for the Royal Shakespeare Company. Here Isis will be making her RSC debut where she's set to star alongside a stellar cast that includes the likes of Tom Mothersdale, Oli Higginson and Emily Benjamin. The production will also see rising star director Emily Burns return to the RSC following her five-star rated Love's Labour's Lost last year also at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. As a lesser-performed Shakespeare play, this is set to be a must-see show of the season with the RSC continuing it's latest season of shows. In this new interview, Isis Hainsworth opens up about her humble beginnings as an actress to being named a Screen International Star of Tomorrow in 2022. As she continues rehearsals for Measure For Measure, we hear her talk about her love for acting and the joy of returning to the theatre following her recent widely acclaimed performances in Romeo and Juliet and The House of Bernada Alba, both directed by Rebecca Frecknall. Indeed, we hear Isis speak affectionately about the directors she's gotten to work with and she highlights her admiration for Emily Burns for taking a bold approach to Measure For Measure, stripping parts of the text back whilst remaining faithful to the story. It's an endearing conversation throughout and it seems Isis is unlikely stop anytime soon as she continues to charm audiences and peers alike.Measure For Measure runs at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre from 13 September - 25 October with tickets on sale now!Support the show

Recibimos a dos figuras del teatro contemporáneo internacional. Nacido en Buenos Aires y con tres décadas radicado en España, el destacado actor, dramaturgo, director y referente del teatro físico, miembro de la Academia de las Artes Escénicas de España, llega a nuestro país para dar tres seminarios en el CCE, uno de ellos interpretación, texto y la palabra a partir de “Medida por Medida” de William Shakespeare, está dedicado al elenco estable de la Comedia Nacional. También impartirá la dramaturgia del clown para egresados de la EMAD y Residencia de la Risa para público en general.La directora, dramaturga, especialista en voz e investigadora teatral española, María Goiricelaya es la autora de la obra documental "El caso Nevenka" que actualmente se presenta en Montevideo. Se trata de una obra de teatro documental escrita dirigida por Raquel Diana y representada por el elenco de la Comedia.Se estrenó en el centro cultural Florencio Sánchez y realiza una gira por salas descentralizadas de Montevideo, que incluye funciones en la sala Lazaroff, el centro cultural Terminal Goes y el centro cultural Artesano. La obra se presentará hasta el 7 de setiembre.El caso Nevenka cuenta la historia real de Nevenka Fernández, la primera mujer en España que denunció públicamente por acoso sexual a un político en ejercicio: el alcalde de Ponferrada, Ismael Álvarez.

With his solemn, near pious, Sonnet 146, William Shakespeare for the first and only time speaks directly to his soul and entreats it to look after itself; to stop expending its energy on the pursuit of outward, physical adornments which are all doomed to swift decay – effectively starving and weakening itself whilst feeding and strengthening the gluttonous body that is only meant to house it and that will soon succumb to death – and to instead let go of material riches and with the 'return' from 'selling' them, 'purchase' something infinitely more valuable: eternal life in concord with, and on the terms ordained by, God.The poem makes no mention, nor does it allude to or reference indirectly, any lover, mistress, or wife, nor love itself, or sex. This, too, makes it unique in the collection. As does its close alignment with a Christian notion of redemption through spiritual nurture at the expense of, and in preference to, physical or material gratification.

Está considerada como la invención más sincera y original de Shakespeare. Es también la «summa» de su cultura acumulada a través de los años, y sobre todo de su experiencia teatral. Es ante todo un experimento en el ámbito del espectáculo: explota, deliberadamente, como ninguna otra obra precedente, los recursos y trucos de escena y hace del elemento musical y de todos los efectos sonoros una estructura que recorre la obra. La figura de Próspero se contempla esencialmente en «La tempestad» en su contexto natural que no es sino teatral. Su magia, su arte, son una reflexión sobre el arte del dramaturgo. Metateatro y psicodrama jugando sobre una serie de sugerencias que inducen a los personajes a autorrevelarse y a la vez a reconocerse como parte de una inteligencia más amplia que los incluye, como parte del diseño con el que el mago-dramaturgo se explica a sí mismo

A lively, hilarious, and entirely truthful look at the druggie side of history's most famous figures, including Shakespeare, George Washington, the Beatles, and moreDid you know that Alexander the Great was a sloppy drunk and William Shakespeare was a stoner? Or how about the fact that Steve Jobs believed taking LSD helped him create the Apple computer, or that Sigmund Freud loved cocaine so much he took it all the time and prescribed it to his patients?In Human History on Drugs, Sam Kelly introduces us to the history our teachers never told us, offering up irreverent and insightful commentary as he sheds light on some truly bizarre aspects of the historical characters we only thought we knew. With chapters spanning from Ancient Greece (“The Oracle of Delphi Was Huffing Fumes”) to modern times (“Carl Sagan Got Astronomically High”), Kelly's research covers all manner of eras, places, and, of course, drugs.History is rife with drug use and drug users, and Human History on Drugs takes us through those highs (pun intended) and lows on a witty and entertaining ride that uncovers their mind-boggling impact on our past.Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://brandyschillace.com/peculiar/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://eepurl.com/ixJJ2Y⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/PeculiarBookClub/membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@PeculiarBookClub/streams⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@peculiarbookclub.bsky.social⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠facebook.com/groups/peculiarbooksclub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thepeculiarbookclub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

How are some people so much smarter than the rest of us? Where do visionary creatives and savvy decision-makers like Vincent Van Gogh, Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, Maya Angelou, Warren Buffet, and William Shakespeare,get their extraordinary mental abilities?In 2021, researchers at Ohio State's Project Narrative, the world's leading academic think-tank for the study of how stories work, and a place renowned for collaborations with NASA, Hollywood, and Silicon Valley, announced they had the answer. They named it Primal Intelligence. And they published scientific proof that Primal Intelligence was impossible for computers—but could be strengthened in humans.Intrigued, U.S. Army Special Operations developed Primal training for its most classified units. The training succeeded. The Operators saw the future faster. They healed quicker from trauma. In life-and-death situations, they chose wiser.From there the Army authorized training for civilian entrepreneurs, doctors, engineers, managers, coaches, teachers, investors, and NFL players. Their leadership and innovation improved significantly. They coped better with change and uncertainty. They experienced less anger and anxiety. And when they offered the training to college and K-12 classrooms it produced substantial effects in students as young as eight.In today's conversation with Angus Fletcher who serves as Professor of story science at Project Narrative,holds dual degrees in neuroscience and literature, a PhD in Shakespeare, and is author of the powerful new book: Primal Intelligence: You Are Smarter than You know.We'll take a deep dive into the groundbreaking research and training they've been developing at Project Narrative over the past 4 years. And Angus will share his often surprising and unexpected journey into this work. Including some of the most potent insights and practices he gained from collaborating with U.S. Special Operations along the way.To learn more about Primal Intelligence, including the inspiring new book, Angus's work, and Primal trainings please visit operationhuman.comEnjoying the show?

Alcibiades leads his troops past Timon's hideout in the wilderness, prompting a barrage of insults and mockery from the malcontent. But when Timon learns Alcibiades is planning to take over Athens, he gives him gold to support the campaign. Alcibiades is followed by the Poet and Painter, who Timon turns away with another barrage of insults. When thieves come to rob him, Timon cheers them on, baffling their efforts and sending them to the city to sow chaos in the streets. The Senators are the last to arrive. Flavia heads them off in an effort to win Timon over to their side before they meet.

With his exceptionally explicit and startlingly revelatory Sonnet 144 William Shakespeare addresses head on the fact that his mistress and his lover are certainly friends, and that he suspects – rather strongly, we get the impression – them to be so with benefits.By identifying the man as 'right fair' and contrasting him with a woman who is 'coloured ill', he confirms what we have long thought to be the case: this is a constellation that has turned triangular, and it involves these precise three individuals, the poet, his younger male lover, the Fair Youth of the first 126 sonnets in the collection, and the Dark Lady around whom 25 of the remaining 28 sonnets revolve. This rather puts paid to the suggestion espoused by some scholars that these sonnets can or let alone should be read in isolation, that no narrative of any kind should ever be deduced from them, or that they may have been written to and about any number of lovers of any gender over the period of their composition. What Sonnet 144 shows beyond anything that might still be considered reasonable doubt, and much in line with Sonnets 33 through 42 in the Fair Youth section and Sonnets 133 and 134 in this, the Dark Lady section of the collection, is that these two groups of poems overlap, that they concern themselves with the same 'two loves' of Shakespeare's, and that our poet is profoundly disturbed by the fact that, as he sees and presents it, his mistress has seduced his young man.

“And baby, that's show business for you!❤️‍

I might say today's poem is all subtext–if it weren't for all the text. Ambiguous praise, sincere romantic angst, just the right amount of bitter wit: this sonnet has it all. Happy reading.

Harley Mumford (Fandamentals podcast) and Tom Davies (The Proper Mental Podcast) return to Flixwatcher to review Harley's choice The King. The King (2019) is a historical drama based on William Shakespeare's Henriad. Directed by David (War Machine) Michôd it's star studded cast includes Timothée Chalamet as Henry V, Joel Edgerton as John Falstaff, Sean Harris as Chief Justice Sir William Gascoigne, Tom Glynn-Carney as Sir Harry "Hotspur" Percy, Lily-Rose Depp as Catherine, Thomasin McKenzie as Phillippa, Queen of Denmark, Robert Pattinson as Louis, Duke of Guyenne and Ben Mendelsohn as King Henry IV. This adaptation of Shakespeare's Henriad focuses on the rise Henry V after his father's death while he navigates the politics involved and discovers while the loyalties lie. The King is much more a character study that action film, there is action but it explores in the emotional side as well. Recommendability for The King was mixed, its length and subject proved tricky to be universally recommended and it scores 2.85 overall.

James Shapiro wears many hats – author, scholar, cultural historian, consultant to New York's Public Theatre – discusses his work with actors and students, as well as his invaluable books A Year in the Life of William Shakespeare: 1599, The Year of Lear: Shakespeare in 1606, and Shakespeare in a Divided America. Shapiro also shares experiences of working on this summer's Twelfth Night in New York's Central Park; working with Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal on Broadway in Othello; how he first discovered Shakespeare; what he learns from working with actors; the power of knowing whether a thou is a formal thou or an eff-you thou; being scolded (rightly!) by F. Murray Abraham; whether he prefers to be known as a historian, a mensch, or the Shakespeare Guy; how his thoughts about America have evolved since he wrote Shakespeare in a Divided America; how his correspondence with a Supreme Court justice was the Shakespeare in the coal mine; and how we look at the news for what's happening today but turn to Shakespeare to find out what's at stake.

Timon leaves Athens with his curses, strips himself bare and goes into the wilderness. As hunger sets in, he digs for a root to eat and discovers a pile of gold hidden underground. Apemantus finds Timon lamenting his fate and scolds him for being an undeserving misanthrope, telling him to come back to Athens. Timon refuses, setting off an argument between them. Apemantus finally leaves Timon and returns to Athens, where the citizens are growing increasingly unruly over the high taxes and prices they're paying as Alcibiades launches his offensive against the city. When Apemantus announces that he's found Timon with a trove of coins, the Artist, the Painter and the Senators head for the hills to get some of Timon's gold.

August signals the end of summer break, and students across Louisiana are heading back into the classroom. Monday  is the first day of  school for public school students in Orleans, Jefferson and Lafayette parishes. Students in Baton Rouge returned to class last week – and were met with a host of changes.Charles Lussier covers education for The Baton Rouge Advocate. He joins us to break down those changes.The Louisiana Shakespeare Company is presenting an adaptation of William Shakespeare's “The Tempest.” And many Louisianans will find the story of a storm that decimates a town rather familiar. In fact, the setting for this performance is modern-day New Orleans.  Director Jennifer Bouquet and actor Timmie Callais tell us about this upcoming rendition of a classic Shakespeare tragedy. New Orleans is getting hotter. You can see that in numbers and charts — but what does it sound like? The Gulf States Newsroom's Drew Hawkins talked to musicians in New Orleans about how the heat is affecting them — and to get some help turning the data into music.—Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Karen Henderson. Our managing producer is Alana Schreiber. We receive production and technical support from Garrett Pittman, Adam Vos and our assistant producer, Aubry Procell. You can listen to Louisiana Considered Monday through Friday at noon and 7 p.m. It's available on Spotify, the NPR App and wherever you get your podcasts. Louisiana Considered wants to hear from you! Please fill out our pitch line to let us know what kinds of story ideas you have for our show. And while you're at it, fill out our listener survey!

With his uncharacteristically lighthearted Sonnet 143, William Shakespeare plants a picture in our minds of the poet as a crying toddler placed on the ground while his mother is running after a wayward chicken, and expresses his hope, not unreasonable in the imagined circumstances, that the mother, once she has caught the bird she's chasing, will come back to him and comfort him with her affection and her love.It's an unusual simile to say the least: not because it is complex or difficult to visualise – in fact the opposite – but because it departs from virtually all and any traditional or even just, one might argue, advisable comparison for a lover to invoke: rare is the Lothario who impresses his mistress by likening himself to her babe. And it continues to expressly accept the fact that this woman has other men whom she actively pursues. In this case, it would appear, one particular other man, who in this oddly farcical setup is assigned the role of the runaway cockerel.

Steven welcomes author Derek Hunter to this episode to discuss his historical fiction book, "Anonymous Agnostic Antichrists," written from the voice of Thomas Sackville, who claims in his writings to be the true author of the works of William Shakespeare.

Felicia Kingsley, un'autrice da oltre 3 milioni e mezzo di copie vendute, è considerata una delle massime esponenti del genere Romance che sta spopolando negli ultimi anni. "L'amante perduta di Shakespeare" (Newton Compton Editori) è, però, un romanzo leggermente diverso dagli altri, perché è soprattutto un mistery (anche se la storia d'amore non manca). Felicia Kinsley si è divertita a giocare con la storia della letteratura perché tira in ballo Shakespeare, ma anche un po' il conte di Montecristo. Questo è un romanzo che indaga sul mistero dell'identità di William Shakespeare. Il protagonista è Nick Montecristo, che si trova in carcere dove incontra un prete gesuista, José Farias (e qui i richiami al romanzo di Dumas). Farias fa evadere Nick Montecristo con l'obiettivo di fargli commettere furti d'arte su commissione. Il primo incarico? Ritrovare il first folio di Shakespeare, ossia la trascrizione delle opere del Bardo fatta solo dopo la sua morte.

In the second installment of this summer's Little Gold Men book club series, David, Richard, and Rebecca are joined by VF's Hillary Busis to discuss Maggie O'Farrell's Hamnet, which explores grief and hope from the perspective of William Shakespeare's wife.
