This episode is a little different from the norm - come with us as we explore the wild world of early modern playing companies! What were they? Why were they? Who were they? And other W words as well. Our look at the Queen’s Men (aka the all-star troupe of actors commanded by Her Majesty) will set us up for the rest of the season, throughout which we will closely examine some of the big headliner titles from the Queen’s Men’s repertory and ask you to VOTE on which one we should feature as a 101 episode at the end of this season. We introduce a new game - The Lost Plays Game! - and also take a few short trips down tangential creeks into the origins of the vacuum cleaner and a memorially reconstructed version of “The Documentary” Shakespeare in Love. It’s a romp. A Queen’s Men romp.
