The Bardcast: "It's Shakespeare, You Dick!"

Ages of Shakespeare


Listen Later

Sent us a text, you dicks!!

How old ARE Romeo and Juliet? And Antony and Cleopatra?? And Rosalind and Orlando??? And King Lear????

In this episode, we discuss not only how old the characters in the canon are (or in many cases, appear to be), but also, whether or not it makes a difference to the story. And on top of THAT, we also talk about how well known actors play characters VERY different from their own age when they play certain roles.

Ageism, you say?? Nah.
