In the darkest episode of “Undercover Bosses” of all time, the Duke of Vienna announces he’s taking a vacation and disguises himself as a monk, to see how his seemingly pious deputy Angelo runs the city -- only to find out that he’s a hypocritical autocrat with a penchant for sexually blackmailing nuns. In order to depose Angelo and right his wrongs, our heroes develop a crazy scheme that strains credulity. Will and James discuss what Shakespeare was doing with this “problem play” and what it has to say about #MeToo, sex and the public square, and the point at which a plot requires just a little too much suspension of disbelief. // CREDITS // Intro Music: Jon Sayles, "The Witches' Dance" (composed by anonymous); Outro Music: Jon Sayles, “Saltarello” (composed by anonymous); Illustrative Excerpts: John Gielgud, Ages of Man, Caedmon Records (1959); “Measure for Measure,” Brown Box Theater Project, dir.
