Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
EPISODE DESCRIPTION The English Theater survived a lot of pushback from various powers that be, but in the 17th century, it had to go into hiding, from PURITANS. Let's take a look at how the English Civil War, Charles I's beheading, and the Restoration of the monarchy all had effects on the English Theater. Also, not to bury the lede, but WOMEN finally make it to the English stage in this episode. Plus, Restoration comedies are pretty smutty, so you should hang on 'til the end of this one

The image of moral crusaders constantly ruining the harmless fun of common people is far to familiar and its disheartening to know it has gone back as far as theatre of all things. Will the west (or perhaps just the protestant influenced west) ever be free of the hand wringing fear mongers?

We once went to an open air production of Romeo and Juliet, just as it went into the interval a huge storm blew in, and the 2nd half had to be cancelled. it was quite nice though, because it ended with Romeo and Juliet happy and in love -----

The Puritans are the reason I hated the first month or so of any American literature class I had to take. The joke's on them though, because one of the most famous plays in American theater history is about them (The crucible)

Theatre is corrupting the youths. Will no one think of the children?
What is old is new again. The Charleston. Rock n Roll. Juke boxes. Video games. The internet. Omg, some things never change.

This series is sure taking its sweet time about getting around to Japanese theater. I hope they eventually talk about LARPing, which should be considered a form of theater.

To the comment about Plato writing in dialogue form, does anyone else think that Plato was probably a failed playwright, which in turn made him bitter toward theatre?

Hey! I am a drama student, and would love to read some of the original plays and sources on theatre.
Is there a list of sources used, that I can find somewhere?

The republic isn-t about the perfect society. It is a representation of the soul so that he could talk about metaphysics in a more understandable way.
