Listen "Book 18. Maskerade"
Episode Synopsis
‘That’s basically all of opera, reely.’
‘What? Either dyin’ or drinkin’ beer?’
‘We-ll…there might be some other stuff. But mostly it’s stout or stabbin.’
The witches return to Ankh-Morpork and a series of killings at the opera house. City Guide PJ Hart leads the way through PTerry's world of ghosts, Greebo and cootie dumplings. First-timer Andy Luke brings his knowledge of operatic motifs and shares a surprising anecdote about the consequences of reading Maskerade, and singing about it.
