Ariana has a chat with director Bronwyn Barnwell about her Radio Shakespeare Lab production of Love’s Labour’s Lost with her dream cast! We are joined by some of the actors from her production to discuss the play and process including Charlie Morton, Preston Perrin, Ly Poe, Alexander Mushore, with Ian Gould.
Among many things, we talk about the remarkably difficulty of the language of this play, the unique process of creation in isolation, metatheacricality, character doubles, rhyming, romantic fools, women as strong political figures called away for duty, how each character is clever in a distinctive way, Boyet as a Puck-like figure, significance of nationalities, math and numerology, and dirty language.
Be sure to catch Love’s Labour’s Lost over on Radio Shakespeare Lab over the next five Fridays!

We work our way through the the second half of Act IV of Henry V - this episode covers scenes 4-8.
Among many things, we talk about how the boy grounds us with his moments alone with the audience, the difficulty of conveying how quickly the battle turns against the French, the startling moments where the language of violence is mingled with the language of eroticism and intimacy, Fluellen, WIlliams, and Henry: the honesty test, and how after the boys are killed, somehow the men revert to a childlike state.
Our ensemble for Henry V includes Nazlah Black, Esther Boles, Zoe Burke, Andrew Codispoti, Xdzunúm Danae, Zoë Goslin, Isabel Karp, Colin Kohrs, Alexander Lane, Julia Larsen, Amy Meilander, Jesse Van Buren, facilitated and directed by Ariana Karp.
