In this episode, hosts Kara Hankard and Madison Rudolph take a deep dive into critical theory, thinking through the ways that Cavendish's closet drama can be illuminated through the lens of feminist and queer theory. They begin by unpacking Cavendish's naming conventions in the play before turning to an examination of the play's queer poetics and some spicy details from Cavendish's own biography. They are then joined by actors Sophia Berrata, Katelyn Spurgin, and Johnny Williams III for a performance of a key scene from the play. There's some bonus content in this episode's guide, so check that out on our website. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
