EPIC #3 Elements - Every Night is Movie Night When You're Dead


Listen Later

From the waters of Aquamarine Immortal, we now descend deep to the Underworld and the river Lethe... to meet a couple of heroes bingeing on Netflix. Every Night is Movie Night When You're Dead was written by Ian Rory and was awarded second place in the 'Open' (aged 19+) category, with the theme 'Troy'. 

This episode was narrated by Dr Alex McAuley (Cardiff University; Honorary Secretary of the Classical Association) and Professor James Robson (Open University; Grants Officer of the Classical Association). 

EPIC: Modern Writers, Ancient Stories is a compilation of short stories written by entrants in the 2022 Classical Association Creative Writing Competition, inspired by Stephen Fry's trilogy Mythos, Heroes and Troy.

For the next six weeks, we will be releasing a brand-new story influenced by the ancient world every day, read by a different narrator - make sure you hit 'follow' or 'subscribe' to ensure you don't miss a single story. The full e-book will be released later this year.
