In this episode, we talked about gender and sexuality in three recent stage productions of Twelfth Night, and what happens when you look for queer history in a play from the 1600s. 

We discussed the 2012 Globe production, the 2017 Globe production, and the 2017 National Theatre production, as well as the 1996 film directed by Trevor Nunn.
