This is the first of a three part series looking at The Shrewsbury Fragments - this is fragment number one, a Shepherds play.

This clears the very earliest surviving material, clearing a path towards the late medieval plays, that survive in greater abundance. 

In The Shrewsbury Shepherds by the Unknown

Third Shepherd was played by Fiona Thraille, with Simon Nader as the cue.

The host was Robert Crighton
