Beyond Shakespeare

195: The Prodigal Son (Fragment)

29 Jan 2022

Description

Fragments: The Prodigal Son by the Unknown - from the press of William Rastell, possibly around 1530. It's a return to full cast audio production this year, with this short fragment of The Prodigal Son plus introductory exposition.  CW: The text plays with misogynistic ideas of the shrewish wife, and there is an unfortunate use of a word which has an alternative modern meaning to firewood. In the fragment known as The Prodigal Son, or Pater, Filius et Uxor - Uxor was played by Leigh McDonald; Pater by Geir Madland; Filius by Simon Nader, and the servant, Robert Crighton. The Prodigal Son was hosted and produced by Robert Crighton. Additional links and material.
