あらすじ・解説
Join me for a short history of the reception of John Ford's 'Tis Pity She's a Whore - a play that centres on an incestuous relationship between brother and sister: Giovanni and Annabella.
In the episode I discuss a promotional poster for a performance of the play that was banned by TfL for overt sexuality. This article discusses the ban: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/tis-pity-shes-a-whore-sam-wanamaker-playhouse-se1-pdc5lw6fdxd, but this blog post gives you the full poster: https://peterviney.com/stage/tis-pity-shes-a-whore-wanamaker/
