Hamlet to Hamilton: Exploring Verse Drama

S2 E7: Melodrama! (1895)


Listen Later

Get ready to swoon in every single scene, because we're focusing on our first Canadian playwright, William Wilfred Campbell's melodramatic Mordred: A Tragedy in Five Acts.  We're jumping out of windows, we're stealing armor, we're mistaking our identities, and choosing our romantic partners by way of dibs.  Start twirling your moustache and enjoy the melodrama!

As an extra special bonus, we'll be dropping the Zoom video for this episode for our patrons on Patreon.  To join, visit http://www.patreon.com/hamlettohamilton.com

Season Two we're looking at Arthur Through the Ages, looking at how  English verse playwrights took on the King Arthur myth, from 1587-2019.
