Description

We're back with Shakespeare's experimental phase (Meg will explain all), so strap on your fairy wings, grab your play script and elopement partner, and let's head into the woods. Prepare for us to blown your mind as we argue just how anti-romance Dream really is; and once more for the fairy kings in the back - down with the patriarchy!

Co Hosted by Lexie Ward and Meg Robinson.
Music By Connor Barton (Sethera Sound Design)
